论文摘要
尽管已经提出，从现场工作到远程办公的转变将改变城市结构，但这种变化的机制尚不清楚。这项研究阐明了当远程办公成本降低以及这如何影响城市经济时，公司的位置如何变化。获得的两个主要结果如下。 （i）远程办公的扩展使公司位于城市中心附近或更靠近城市边缘。 （ii）远程办公使城市产量更加高效，城市更加紧凑。这是第一本证明可以在统一的理论模型中表示两项实证研究的论文，并且可以通过仿真获得的现有研究来分析。
Although it has been suggested that the shift from on-site work to telework will change the city structure, the mechanism of this change is not clear. This study clarifies how the location of firms changes when the cost of teleworking decreases and how this affects the urban economy. The two main results obtained are as follows. (i) The expansion of teleworking causes firms to be located closer to urban centers or closer to urban fringes. (ii) Teleworking makes urban production more efficient and cities more compact. This is the first paper to show that two empirical studies can be represented in a unified theoretical model and that existing studies obtained by simulation can be explained analytically.
