A transport model for the evolution of urban systems

When comparing an urban system to an elasto-plastic lattice, an analogy to the solid state of matter can be exploited using the concepts of the band theory similarly. Thereafter, the population dynamics – in a region of certain stability in the state space and within appropriate energy bands – can be described in terms of Cellular Automata, with two mobile agents or pseudo particles: the inhabitant (representative of an average individual) and the recurson (representative of its multidimensional resources). As in the solid state, transition rules take the form of two coupled transport equations, comprising the terms equivalent to the generation-recombination and circulation processes. The first process can be compared to a predator–prey growth model, typical of Ecology; whereas the circulation process – composed of a drift component and a diffusion component – should be compared to the concentration-sprawl demographic balance seen in urban occupation and dynamics. Thus, it needs to be defined and determined an urban potential function, an equivalent population charge, mobility and diffusion parameters, as well as net growth factors. This analogy, discussed within the context of a case study for Great Mendoza, plausibly explains the varied growth rates of the political departments, as well as the principal urban trends for spatial occupation.

Existence and characterization of regions minimizing perimeter under a volume constraint inside Euclidean cones

We study the problem of existence of regions separating a given amount of volume with the least possible perimeter inside a Euclidean cone. Our main result shows that nonexistence for a given volume implies that the isoperimetric profile of the cone coincides with the one of the half-space. This allows us to give some criteria ensuring existence of isoperimetric regions: for instance, local convexity of the cone at some boundary point.

We also characterize which are the stable regions in a convex cone, i.e., second order minima of perimeter under a volume constraint. From this it follows that the isoperimetric regions in a convex cone are the euclidean balls centered at the vertex intersected with the cone.

Approximated Bayes and empirical Bayes confidence intervals—The known variance case

In this paper hierarchical Bayes and empirical Bayes results are used to obtain confidence intervals of the population means in the case of real problems. This is achieved by approximating the posterior distribution with a Pearson distribution. In the first example hierarchical Bayes confidence intervals for the Efron and Morris (1975, J. Amer. Statist. Assoc., 70, 311–319) baseball data are obtained. The same methods are used in the second example to obtain confidence intervals of treatment effects as well as the difference between treatment effects in an analysis of variance experiment. In the third example hierarchical Bayes intervals of treatment effects are obtained and compared with normal approximations in the unequal variance case.Financially supported by the CSIR and the University of the Orange Free State, Central Research Fund.

Numerical conformal mapping of multiply connected regions onto the second, third and fourth categories of Koebe?s canonical slit domains

This paper presents a boundary integral method for approximating the conformal mappings from any bounded or unbounded multiply connected region G onto the second, third and fourth categories of Koebe?s canonical slit domains. The method can be also used for calculating the conformal mappings of simply and doubly connected regions. The method is an extension of the author?s method for the first category of Koebe?s canonical slit domains (see [M.M.S. Nasser, Numerical conformal mapping via a boundary integral equation with the generalized Neumann kernel, SIAM J. Sci. Comput. 31 (2009) 1695-1715]). Three numerical examples are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.
