Study On Applications Of Supply And Demand Theory Of Microeconomics And Physics Field Theory To Central Place Theory

This paper attempts to analyze "Central place theory" of spatial economics based on "Supply and demand theory" in microeconomics and "Field theory" in physics, and also discuss their relationship. Three most important research findings are described below. Firstly, the concept of market equilibrium could be expressed in the mathematical form of physics field theory under proper hypothesis. Secondly, the mathematical model of field theory can be applied to express clearly many concepts of central place theory, or even introduce many new concepts. Thirdly, it could also be taken as a study of combining the Hotelling Model and Moses Model for the location theory in another mathematic approach.
