The basic facts of repeat victimization are well known. Substantial proportions of differences in rates of crime are attributable to differences in their concentration on particular targets, whether those targets are defined in terms of people, organizations or households. Four of the chapters in this collection detail the extent and correlates of such rates in continental Europe and worldwide ...
متن کاملStationary patterns and their selection mechanism of Urban crime models with heterogeneous near–repeat victimization effect
In this paper, we study two PDEs that generalize the urban crime model proposed by Short et al. [Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci., 18 (2008), pp. 1249–1267]. Our modifications are made under assumption of the spatial heterogeneity of both the near–repeat victimization effect and the dispersal strategy of criminal agents. We investigate pattern formations in the reaction–advection–diffusion syste...

A hot spot refers to numerous crime incidents clustered in a limited space-time range. The near-repeat phenomenon suggests that every victimization might form a contagion-like pattern nearby in terms of both space and time. In this article, the near-repeat phenomenon is used to analyze the risk levels around hot spots. Utilizing a recent burglary dataset in N (a large city located in southeaste...
