Description
Researchers working in lattice field theory built an established
community since the early 1990s, around the same time when
the arXiv was created. The fact that this field has a specific
arXiv section provides a unique opportunity for a statistical
study of its evolution over the last three decades.
We present data for the annual number of papers and citations,
in total and separated by countries. We compare them to other
arXiv sections (hep-ph, hep-th, cond-mat, nucl-th), and to
socio-economic data for each country involved, like the GDP,
the Education Index and the skilled labor force.
