Measuring the concentration of urban population in the negative exponential model using the Lorenz curve, Gini coefficient, Hoover dissimilarity index, and relative entropy
<b>Background</b>: Stewart (1947) and Clark (1951) proposed that urban population density is a negative exponential function of the distance from a city's center. This model of the spatial distribution of urban population density has been influential in urban economics, transportati...
