Most cited (all time)
The ten most-cited Mathematics works on the abc conjecture, by citation count in OpenAlex. Results are filtered to the Mathematics field (OpenAlex field 26) and ranked by total citations.
The Top 100 ranking is designed to capture prominent, currently active researchers. If an author in this table is not linked to a profile, it is usually because they are deceased or less active than the researchers in the ranking, not because they are less significant to the field.
