arXiv endorsement eligibility
arXiv requires established authors to endorse first-time submitters in a subject area. Eligibility depends on papers submitted between three months and five years ago, so it changes over time. These are estimates computed from public arXiv metadata — arXiv does not publish its exact thresholds, and endorsement decisions are private.
