I wanted to publish a research paper which has less relevant stuff compacted and would be more focused on important and relevant items.
Also, I have failed to find a guide to publish small compact research papers.

John Nash published a paper entitled Equilibrium Points in n-Person Games. The paper is one page long. But it's John Nash, and it was in 1950. It was the beginning of a whole new field (game theory), and the man was a genius. (Credit to MathOverflow.)
"and the man was a genius" as may be the OP. One can hope. Nice catch.

I've seen one-page research papers not made by genius. Mostly unusual natural observations ("I have witnessed a grouse feeding on red pine"), but as said in this answer, it was another era...

It is entirely up to the journal or conference.
Most venues have page limits but I have never heard of a minimum. I've seen some really short papers in math journals. Submit it to a venue that you think it would fit in!
Agree. The OP would likely get useful feedback from the review and may, then, need to fill out the ideas more. Complete is in the eye of the beholder.

I do have a hard time seeing how it would be published these days, but clearly very short papers have been acceptable in the past.
Time to add 'write a paper that's just an abstract' to my bucket list (and a short abstract at that).

@Buffy - well, the current accepted value from NIST is 1836.152 673 89(17), while $6 pi ^5$ is 1836.118 108 71 to the same number of decimals, so the paper isn't even particularly interesting anymore!

It may be of interest to note that the current accepted value for the ratio coincides with the Battle of the Alamo if read as a year.

Yes, if your ideas can be expressed concisely enough. For example if you were to find a counterexample to the Beal Conjecture, then you can write two paragraphs and be done. Watson and Crick's 1953 paper describing the structure of DNA was one page long, and won the Nobel Prize. Some other examples of very short papers (admittedly, some of these are jokes) are here.
An actual example of your counterexample senario : ams.org/journals/bull/1966-72-06/S0002-9904-1966-11654-3/â¦

This will often depend on the journal in question. In my field, "Brief Reports" and "Letters" are often quite short, and sometimes less than a single page, highlighting a particular case, a minor point of interest, etc.

@Buffy - well, the current accepted value from NIST is 1836.152 673 89(17), while $6 pi ^5$ is 1836.118 108 71 to the same number of decimals, so the paper isn't even particularly interesting anymore!

It may be of interest to note that the current accepted value for the ratio coincides with the Battle of the Alamo if read as a year.

This will often depend on the journal in question. In my field, "Brief Reports" and "Letters" are often quite short, and sometimes less than a single page, highlighting a particular case, a minor point of interest, etc.
