Urban Dynamics Through the Lens of Human Mobility

Yanyan Xu, Luis E. Olmos, David Mateo +3

The urban spatial structure represents the distribution of public and private spaces in cities and how people move within them. While it usually evolves slowly, it can change fast…

A model for the generation of road networks

Carlos Molinero, Alberto Hernando

As part of the effort undertaken to understand urban environments and their generation, we need to explore models that produce statistically valid configurations of roads. These so…

Maximum Entropy Principle underlying the dynamics of automobile sales

A. Hernando, D. Villuendas, M. Sulc +3

We analyze an exhaustive data-set of new-cars monthly sales. The set refers to 10 years of Spanish sales of more than 6500 different car model configurations and a total of 10M sol…

Thermodynamics of firms' growth

Eduardo Zambrano, Alberto Hernando, Aurelio Fernandez-Bariviera +2

The distribution of firms' growth and firms' sizes is a topic under intense scrutiny. In this paper we show that a thermodynamic model based on the Maximum Entropy Principle, with…

Space-time correlations in urban sprawl

A. Hernando, R. Hernando, A. Plastino

Understanding demographic and migrational patterns constitutes a great challenge. Millions of individual decisions, motivated by economic, political, demographic, rational, and/or…

Space-time correlations in urban population flows

A. Hernando, A. Plastino

Evidences are presented concerning tantalizing regularities in cities' population-flows in what regards to space and time correlations. The former exhibit a distance-behavior (for…
