TLDR
This work analyzes the large time behavior in a nonlinear model of population dynamics with age-dependence and spatial diffusion and shows that when t→+∞ either the solution of the problem goes to 0 or it stabilizes to a nontrivial stationary solution.
Abstract
In this work we analyze the large time behavior in a nonlinear model of population dynamics with age-dependence and spatial diffusion. We show that when t→+∞ either the solution of our problem goes to 0 or it stabilizes to a nontrivial stationary solution. We give two typical examples where the stationary solutions can be evaluated upon solving very simple partial differential equations. As a by-product of the extinction case we find a necessary condition for a nontrivial periodic solution to exist. Numerical computations not described below show a rapid stabilization.

Linear and Quasilinear Equations of Parabolic Type

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered a hyperbolic parabolic singular perturbation problem for a quasilinear equation of kirchhoff type and obtained parameter dependent time decay estimates of the difference between the solutions of the solution of a quasi-linear parabolic equation and the corresponding linear parabolic equations.

TL;DR: In this article, the existence of positive solutions of semilinear elliptic equations is studied and the results are also interpreted in terms of bifurcation diagrams, and in each case nearly optimal multiplicity results are obtained.

Non-linear age-dependent population dynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, the Malthusian law is shown to be inapplicable to situations in which the population competes for resources (e.g., space and food), for in these situations 5 should depend on the size of the population.
