We derive and study a Darwinian dynamic model based on a low-dimensional discrete- time population model focused on two features: density-dependent fertility and a trade-off between inherent (density free) fertility and post-reproduction survival. Both features are assumed to be dependent on a phenotypic trait subject to natural selection. The model tracks the dynamics of the population coupled with that of the population mean trait. We study the stability properties of equilibria by means of bifurcation theory. Whether post-reproduction survival at equilibrium is low or high is shown, in this model, to depend significantly on the nature of the trait dependence of the density effects. An Allee effect can also play a significant role.

In this work, we present the dynamical study and the bifurcation structures of the [Formula: see text]-Ricker population model. Resorting to the Lambert [Formula: see text] function, the analytical solutions of the positive fixed point equation for the [Formula: see text]-Ricker population model are explicitly presented and conditions for the existence and stability of these fixed points are established. The main focus of this work is the definition and characterization of the Allee effect bifurcation for the [Formula: see text]-Ricker population model, which is not a pitchfork bifurcation. Consequently, we prove that the phenomenon of Allee effect for the [Formula: see text]-Ricker population model is associated with the asymptotic behavior of the Lambert [Formula: see text] function in a neighborhood of zero. The theoretical results describe the global and local bifurcations of the [Formula: see text]-Ricker population model, using the Lambert [Formula: see text] function in the presence and absence of the Allee effect. The Allee effect, snapback repeller and big bang bifurcations are investigated in the parameters space considered. Numerical studies are included.
