Random Walks Along the Streets and Canals in Compact Cities: Spectral analysis, Dynamical Modularity, Information, and Statistical Mechanics
Different models of random walks on the dual graphs of compact urban
structures are considered. Analysis of access times between streets helps to
detect the city modularity. The statistical mechanics approach to the ensembles
of lazy random walkers is developed. The complexity of city modularity can be
measured by an information-like parameter which plays the role of an individual
fingerprint of {\it Genius loci}.
Global structural properties of a city can be characterized by the
thermodynamical parameters calculated in the random walks problem.Comment: 44 pages, 22 figures, 2 table
