Somewhere in the gap between a person deciding where to live and a nation’s wealth clustering in a handful of cities, something gets lost. Economists model the aggregate; sociologists study the individual; neither, quite, manages to speak the other’s language. The equations that govern a gas of molecules, however, turn out to say something rather precise about how both come to be, and a new paper by physicist Miguel Durán-Olivencia at Vortico Tech may be the most rigorous attempt yet
