Thesis (Ph.D.)--ESSEC Business School (France), 2023.

This thesis explores the influence of interregional connectivity on the development of regions and their interactions. Connectivity takes various forms, whether through physical transport infrastructure or the ability to establish connections due to cultural similarities, a shared history, and common economic activities. It facilitates the mobility of people and goods over varying distances, thus influencing economic interactions and conditions of a territory. The thesis focuses on three specific dimensions of interactions: trade, interregional innovation collaborations, and commuting patterns of workers.In the first chapter, I assess the importance of market proximity in intranational differences in regional development. To do so, I construct an accessibility index representing the trade potential of each subnational region for all countries worldwide. This index considers the consumption capacities of regions, their transport costs estimated based on physical proximity adjusted for geographical constraints, as well as their cultural and economic proximity. Increased proximity between regions has a positive impact on their trade, which, in turn, influences their level of development. I also evaluate the heterogeneous effect of this proximity on core and peripheral regions.In the second chapter, I delve into the repercussions of improved connectivity between regions, specifically exploring the impact of the introduction of high-speed rail (HSR) lines that have significantly reduced travel times between cities. The objective is to assess how this evolution influences innovation collaborations among inventors in mainland France. To achieve this, I compile a database tracing the evolution of train travel times in France since 1980, before the implementation of the first HSR line. Additionally, I use a database of French patents to identify collaborations between inventors. The results indicate that the reduction in travel time simultaneously stimulates the number, quality, and scope of innovations within these interregional collaborations.As an extension of the second chapter, the third chapter provides a detailed account of the methodology used to construct data on the evolution of train travel times in France from 1980 to 2017. Using the current schedules of trains operated by the French National Railway Company (SNCF), the opening dates of HSR lines, and Dijkstra's algorithm, I calculate the shortest travel times between cities in France for each year. A validation exercise is implemented to demonstrate the reliability of this data.In the fourth chapter, I study the mobility of workers by focusing on commuting patterns in mainland France. The main objective is to assess the impact of reduced travel time on these commutes. To achieve this, I use the database on train travel times presented in Chapter 3, along with data from the "Panel Tous Salaries" of INSEE to quantify the interregional mobility of workers related to their employment. My analysis also includes exploring the major factors influencing these commutes, as well as the combined impact of the feasibility of telecommuting. The results highlight an increase in long-distance commutes, taking advantage of the reduced train travel time. Furthermore, this effect is amplified by the improvement of internet coverage in the residential department. This observation provides an indication of the complementarity of telecommuting and the HSR network, explaining the growth of long-distance commutes.

520 $a Cette these explore l'influence de la connectivite interregionale sur le developpement des regions et leurs interactions. La connectivite revet diverses formes, que ce soit a travers des infrastructures physiques de transport ou la capacite d'etablir des liens en raison de similitudes culturelles ou d'activites economiques partagees. Elle facilite la mobilite des personnes et des biens sur des distances variees, exercant ainsi une influence sur les interactions et conditions economiques d'un territoire. Cette these se focalise sur trois dimensions specifiques d'interactions : le commerce, les collaborations d'innovation interregionales, et les deplacementsdomicile-travail des travailleurs.Dans un premier chapitre, j'evalue l'importance de la proximite des marches sur les differences intranationales de developpement regional. Pour ce faire, je construis un indice d'accessibilite representant le potentiel commercial de chaque region infranationale pour tous les pays du monde. Cet indice prend en compte les capacites de consommation des regions, leurs couts de transport estimes en fonction de la proximite physique ajustee pour les contraintes geographiques, ainsi que leur proximite culturelle et economique. Une proximite accrue entre les regions a un impact positif sur leurs echanges commerciaux, qui influencent a leur tour leur niveau de developpement. J'evalue egalement l'effet heterogene de cette proximite sur les regions riches et peripheriques.Dans le deuxieme chapitre, je m'interesse aux repercussions d'une amelioration de la connectivite entre les regions, en explorant specifiquement l'impact de l'introduction des lignes a grande vitesse (LGV) qui ont considerablement reduit les temps de trajet entre certaines villes. L'objectif est d'evaluer comment cette evolution influence les collaborations d'innovation entre inventeurs en France continentale. Pour ce faire, je compile une base de donnees qui retrace l'evolution des temps de trajet en train en France depuis 1980, avant l'implementation de la premiere ligne. De plus, j'utilise une base de donnees de brevets francais pour detecter les collaborations entre inventeurs. Les resultats indiquent que la reduction du temps de deplacement stimule simultanement le nombre, la qualite et la portee des innovations au sein de ces collaborations interregionales.En prolongement du deuxieme chapitre, le troisieme chapitre propose un expose detaille de la methodologie employee pour construire les donnees sur l'evolution des temps de trajet en train en France de 1980 a 2017. En utilisant les horaires actuels des trains de la Societe Nationale des Chemins de Fer francais (SNCF), les dates d'inauguration des LGV, et l'algorithme de Dijkstra, je calcule les temps de trajet les plus courts de ville a ville en France pour chaque annee. Une procedure de validation est mise en oeuvre pour demontrer la fiabilite de ces donnees.Dans un quatrieme chapitre, j'etudie la mobilite des travailleurs en me focalisant sur les trajets domicile-travail en France continentale. L'objectif principal est d'evaluer l'impact d'une reduction du temps de trajet sur ces deplacements. Pour ce faire, j'utilise la base de donnees sur les temps de trajet en train presentee dans le chapitre 3, conjointement avec les donnees issues du "Panel Tous Salaries" de l'INSEE pour quantifier la mobilite interregionale des travailleurs liee a leur emploi. Mon analyse inclut egalement l'exploration des principaux facteurs influencant ces deplacements, ainsi que l'impact combine de la faisabilite du teletravail. Les resultats obtenus mettent en evidence une augmentation des deplacements longue distance, tirant avantage de la reduction du temps de trajet en train. De plus, cet effet est amplifie par l'amelioration de la couverture internet dans le departement de residence. Ce constat nous offre un indice sur la complementarite du teletravail et du reseau LGV, expliquant la croissance des deplacements longue distance.
