The Hardy-Weinberg law is generally regarded as one of the most important results of population genetics. It was originally proved for the case of populations with distinct generations (Hardy (1908), Weinberg (1908)); a general proof for populations with overlapping generations has apparently not been given before. The case of a single autosomal locus with an arbitrary number of alleles is considered here. Births and deaths are assumed to occur in continuous time. The weak ergodicity property of the birth rate and age structure of such a population, first derived by Norton (1928), is used to establish the fact that allele frequencies tend to constant limits in the absence of mutation, migration, selection and genetic drift.

Maternal selection and overlapping generations can facilitate stable coexistence of alleles under temporally fluctuating environment. The work studies a complex effect of both factors under asymmetric cyclic selection, which simulates environment fluctuation by analogy of food resources cycles with rare peaks and prolonged decline of prey abundance. Our modeling intends to describe a situation demonstrated by the community of “arctic foxes – mouse-like rodents” and explain maintaining polymorphism on litter size in arctic fox.

We formulate an overlapping generations model on optimal emissions with continuous age structure. We compare the noncooperative solution to the cooperative one and obtain fundamental differences in the optimal strategies. Also including an altruistic motive does not avoid the problem of the myopic noncooperative solution. Finally we define a time-consistent tax scheme to obtain the cooperative solution in the noncooperative case.

Through improving the Logistic population model, this paper sets a linear relationship between the net growth rate of the population and time, gets a differential model for predicting the future population, and uses Markov chain for predicting the age structure of the population in China

AbstractWe study a population model with nonlocal diòusion, which is a delayed integro-diòerential equation with double nonlinearity and two integrable kernels. By comparison method and analytical technique, we obtain globally asymptotic stability of the zero solution and the positive equilibrium. The results obtained reveal that the globally asymptotic stability only depends on the property of nonlinearity. As an application, we discuss an example for a population model with age structure.
