Kensuke Ohtake
This paper studies spatial patterns formed by proximate population migration driven by real wage gradients and other idiosyncratic factors. The model consists of a tractable core-p…
Unique global solution of an integral-differential equation of Footloose Entrepreneur model in new economic geography
Kensuke Ohtake
This paper studies the Footloose Entrepreneur model in new economic geography in continuous space. In an appropriate function space, the model is formulated as an initial value pro…

Kensuke Ohtake
The core-periphery model with transport costs in differentiated agriculture is extended to continuous space. A homogeneous stationary solution is unstable but exhibits redispersion…
