Urban and Scientific Segregation: The Schelling-Ising Model
Physics and Society
2007-10-30 v1
Abstract
Urban segregation of different communities, like blacks and whites in the USA, has been simulated by Ising-like models since Schelling 1971. This research was accompanied by a scientific segregation, with sociologists and physicists ignoring each other until 2000. We review recent progress and also present some new two-temperature multi-cultural simulations.
