Abstract
In this paper we present an analysis of the multiple hadron production induced by primary heavy quarks in e + e − annihilation with an account of the most complete and corrected experimental data. In the framework of perturbative QCD, new theoretical bounds on the asymptotically constant differences of the multiplicities in processes with light and heavy quarks are given.
