May 27, 2020 at 2:46 comment added Alexandre Eremenko For example, in the subject 65 ten top papers have more than 1000 citations, while in the subject 31 a typical "top ten" paper is cited only about 200 times.
May 27, 2020 at 2:40 comment added Alexandre Eremenko You can use "Citations" and then "Top 10" buttons in Mathscinet to estimate this. It gives you most cited papers in every MSN subject. Just compare how many times these top cited papers are cited. Compare between the subjects.

May 26, 2020 at 21:55 comment added Jochen Glueck Welcome to MathOverflow! May I suggest to change the title in order to reflect the content of the question more precisely? It seems debatable whether the number of publications is a good measure of "popularity" of a field. (And since MathOverflow is probably not the right place to discuss what is and what is not a good measure of popularity, I suggest to avoid this discussion by rephrasing the title.)
