Phase transition in urban agglomeration and segregation

Physics and Society 2023-07-24 v1

Abstract

A model of the urban agglomeration and segregation is formulated, in which two types of agents move around on the square-lattice aligned cells. The model is shown to exhibit, when the density of agents are varied as the control parameter, various phase transitions representing appearance of urban aggregation, segregation and social disorder.
