search authors by zbMATH style user query

Description

The syntax search allows for free logical combinations of all available search fields. While similar to the structured search, this endpoint offers much more flexibility at the cost of obscure search parameters.

Examples

  • Simon Donald*: Search in <strong>all parts</strong> of an author's name (results contain <em>Simon, Donald</em> M. and <em>Donald</em>son, <em>Simon</em> Kirwan).
  • ln:Donald fn:Simon*: Search for specified family (<strong>ln</strong>) and given (<strong>fn</strong>) name.
  • au:Stefan Müller cc:49: Combine name search (<strong>au</strong>) with main MSC fields (<strong>cc</strong>).
  • au:Helga Bunke: Search results include <strong>name variations</strong>, in particular <strong>name changes</strong>, different <strong>transliterations</strong> and <strong>pseudonyms</strong>. Names of collectives will be displayed as a separate entity.
  • (st:z & b) | (st:o): Search results include all <strong><u>z</u>bMATH reviewers</strong> with <strong><u>b</u>iographic information</strong> or <strong>c<u>o</u>llectives</strong>.
  • (en:MGP | wikidata) ln:a*: Search results include all authors having either an <strong><u>en</u>try</strong> in the <em>Mathematics Genealogy Project</em> or in <em>Wikidata</em> and whose family name starts with <em>''A''</em>.
  • aw:Fields Abel: Search for all <em>Fields Medal</em> <strong><u>aw</u>ard winners</strong> who also received an <em>Abel Prize</em>. The <strong>&</strong> operator is default and omitted here.
