Frequency-dependent growth in class-structured populations: continuous dynamics in the limit of weak selection.

TL;DR: A continuous model that approximates the discrete model of frequency-dependent growth in an infinite haploid population structured into a finite number of classes such that individuals in each class contribute to a given subset of classes from one time step to the next is established.
