Tóm tắt	The i10-index is a deliberately simple author-level metric introduced by Google Scholar in 2011 for its Scholar Citations profiles. It counts the number of a researcher's publications that have each accumulated at least ten citations. Unlike the h-index, whose threshold depends on the rank of the paper, the i10-index applies a single fixed cutoff, making it transparent and trivial to compute. Its appeal lies in this simplicity and in its native availability on every Google Scholar profile, though it is used almost exclusively within the Google Scholar ecosystem and offers less discriminating power than rank-based indices.	The e-index, proposed by Chun-Ting Zhang in 2009, isolates the citations that the h-index throws away. Inside the h-core of an author's h most-cited papers, the h-index implicitly credits each paper with only h citations and discards everything above that, even though top papers may have far more. The e-index recovers exactly this surplus: it is the square root of the difference between the total citations of the h-core and the h-squared citations that the h-index already accounts for. Zhang designed it as a complement rather than a replacement for the h-index, so that the pair (h, e) together describe both the size of an author's productive core and the concentration of excess impact within it.	The m-quotient, defined by Jorge Hirsch in the same 2005 paper that introduced the h-index, normalizes an author's h-index by the length of their scientific career. Because the h-index can only grow over time and never decreases, raw h-values systematically favor senior researchers and make it unfair to compare early-career scientists with established ones. The m-quotient divides the h-index by the number of years since the researcher's first publication, yielding a rate of impact accumulation per year. Hirsch proposed rough benchmarks on this scale, suggesting that a sustained value near 1 characterizes a successful scientist, near 2 an outstanding one, and near 3 a truly exceptional figure, making the m-quotient a tool for comparing researchers at different career stages.
