Sheffield, Scott Roger Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Department of Mathematics Sheffield, Scott Roger Author's final manuscript January 19, 2010 We study a discrete-time resource flow in Z[superscript d] where wealthier vertices attract the resources of their less rich neighbors. For any translation-invariant probability distribution of initial resource quantities, we prove that the flow at each vertex terminates after finitely many steps. This answers (a generalized version of) a question posed by van den Berg and Meester in 1991. The proof uses the mass transport principle and extends to other graphs.
