Ce travail documente l'augmentation des prix des terrains à bâtir en France sur une période de vingt-cinq ans. Nous estimons sur un échantillon national une fonction de prix foncier tenant compte de la croissance urbaine. Nous considérons une relation concave entre le prix des terrains et...

This paper explores the spatial variation of land prices in Belgium. The originality of the methodology is threefold : (1) to work at the spatial extent of an entire country, (2) to compute several accessibility measures to all jobs and several representations of the environmental amenities and,...

We propose an analytical resolution of Schelling segregation model for a general class of utility functions. Using evolutionary game theory, we provide conditions under which a potential function, which characterizes the global configuration of the city and is maximized in the stationary state,...

We simulate a closed rental housing market with search and matching frictions, in which both landlord and tenant agents may be imperfectly informed of the characteristics of the market. The model hypotheses are set so as to match a rent posting search model in the spirit of search models of the...
