Density-equalizing map projections: Diffusion-based algorithm and applications (2008)
Michael T. Gastner, Michael T. Gastner
Map makers have for many years searched for a way to construct cartograms—maps in which the sizes of geographic regions such as coun-tries or provinces appear in proportion to their population or...
The Price of Anarchy in Transportation Networks: Efficiency and Optimality Control (2007)
Youn, Hyejin, Gastner, Michael T., Jeong, Hawoong
Uncoordinated individuals in human society pursuing their personally optimal strategies do not always achieve the social optimum, the most beneficial state to the society as a whole. Instead,...
Optimal design of spatial distribution networks (2006)
Gastner, Michael T., Newman, M. E. J.
We consider the problem of constructing public facilities, such as hospitals, airports, or malls, in a country with a non-uniform population density, such that the average distance from a person's...
Shape and efficiency in spatial distribution networks (2006)
Gastner, Michael T, Newman, M. E. J.
We study spatial networks that are designed to distribute or collect a commodity, such as gas pipelines or train tracks. We focus on the cost of a network, as represented by the total length of all...
The spatial structure of networks (2006)
Gastner, Michael T, Newman, M. E.J.
We study networks that connect points in geographic space, such astransportation networks and the Internet. We find that there are strongsignatures in these networks of topography and use patterns,...

Shape and efficiency in spatial distribution networks (2004)
Gastner, Michael T., Newman, M. E. J.
We study spatial networks that are designed to distribute or collect a commodity, such as gas pipelines or train tracks. We focus on the cost of a network, as represented by the total length of all...

Diffusion-based method for producing density equalizing maps (2004)
Gastner, Michael T., Newman, M. E. J.
Map makers have long searched for a way to construct cartograms -- maps in which the sizes of geographic regions such as countries or provinces appear in proportion to their population or some other...
