This study introduces an approximation method for non-linear population dynamics models. The method ensures the approximate solution closely matches the true solution over extended time periods.

Area of Science:

  • Mathematical Biology
  • Population Dynamics
  • Differential Equations

Background:

  • Non-linear age-structured population models are crucial for understanding species interactions.
  • These models, often complex partial integro-differential equations, pose analytical challenges.
  • Interactions among individuals introduce non-linearities that complicate direct solutions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an effective approximation method for a specific class of non-linear age-structured population dynamic models.
  • To analyze the asymptotic behavior of the proposed approximate solution.
  • To demonstrate the accuracy and long-term stability of the approximation.

Main Methods:

  • Formulating a non-linear age-structured population model using partial integro-differential equations.
