Abstract

The number of studies based on chaos theory is quite high. Therefore, it is important to analyze chaos theory’s development over the years deeply. However, there is no study in the literature examining the research status of this field. The article presents the bibliometric analysis of the studies on the keywords “Chaos Theory” and “Applications” indexed in Scopus between 1987 and 2021. This study aims to quantitatively evaluate the academic output in chaos theory research, make sense of the data, reveal the state of scientific knowledge in the field, and provide scientists with a general perspective on the subject. Bibliometrix and Microsoft Excel programs were used for bibliometric analysis. Nine thousand one hundred different authors identified a total of 5088 studies. Of these studies, 60.3% were research articles, and 32.9% were conference papers. Chaos Solitons and Fractals was the most published journal, with 206 articles. Only China and the USA contributed 39.7% to the studies. Vaidyanathan, S. was the most prolific author with 72 articles. Vel Tech Rangarajan Dr. Sagunthala R&D Institute of Science and Technology was the most productive institution with 74 studies. The most cited article was the econometrics of financial markets.
