We provide an analytical approach that facilitates understanding the bifurcation mechanism of a wide class of economic … models involving spatial agglomeration of economic activities. The proposed method overcomes the limitations of the Turing … (1952) approach that has been used to analyze the emergence of agglomeration in the multi-regional core–periphery (CP) model …

This paper shows that the evolutionary process of spatial agglomeration in multi-regional core-periphery models can be … not only to examine whether or not agglomeration of mobile factors emerges from a uniform distribution, but also to trace … the evolution of spatial agglomeration patterns (i.e., bifurcations from various polycentric patterns as well as from a …

symmetric roles in that a decrease in either of them favors agglomeration. Yet, tariff rent redistribution has a significant … impact on the spatial equilibrium; when tariffs are origin- (resp. destination-based), agglomeration (resp. dispersion) is … significatif sur l'équilibre spatial.

Self-organization of agglomeration patterns for economic models in a two-dimensional economic space is studied from a … multi-disciplinary viewpoint of new economic geography, central place theory, and bifurcation theory. Emergence of hexagonal …

This paper presents a simple Chamberlinian agglomeration model which, like the canonical core-periphery (CP) model …, the present model exhibits a 'supercritical pitchfork bifurcation' rather than the 'subcritical pitchfork bifurcation' of … complete agglomeration predicted by the CP model. …
