| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to take account of the impact of voters' spatial location, this project is an attempt to characterize the gap between voting location and optimal one by using a simple public facility location model. First, we derive the necessary and sufficient conditions that the voting outcome coincides with efficient one. Then we give simple examples which reveal the inefficiency of the voting solutions. Third we theoretically demonstrate that the network model can reduce to the linear model, indicating that our findings are applicable to network location problems. Finally, we apply our model to an actual city hall location problems in Kanto Region, Japan, using visualization techniques based on GIS.
