Emergent Detailed Balance in Human Mobility under Temporal Coarse-Graining

Lei Dong

A fundamental question in nonequilibrium statistical physics is whether effective equilibrium behavior can emerge at coarse-grained scales in strongly driven systems. Here, we inve…

Switching exploration modes in human mobility

Lu Zhong, Lei Dong, Qi Wang +2

Recent advances in human mobility research have revealed consistent pairwise characteristics in movement behavior, yet existing mobility models often overlook the spatial and topol…

Global evidence for a consistent spatial footprint of intra-urban centers

Shuai Pang, Junlong Zhang, Yu Liu +1

Urban space is highly heterogeneous, with economic and population activities concentrating in localized centers. However, the global organization of such intra-urban centers remain…

Distilling human mobility models with symbolic regression

Hao Guo, Weiyu Zhang, Junjie Yang +3

Human mobility is a fundamental aspect of social behavior, with broad applications in transportation, urban planning, and epidemic modeling. Represented by the gravity model and th…

Universal expansion of human mobility across urban scales

Lu Zhong, Lei Dong, Qi Wang +2

Human mobility is a fundamental process underpinning socioeconomic life and urban structure. Classic theories, such as egocentric activity spaces and central place theory, provide…

Hyperuniform organization in human settlements

Lei Dong

Quantifying the spatial organization of human settlements is fundamental to understanding the complexity of urban systems. However, the quantitative patterns of the distribution of…
