Generalization of Carey's Equality and a Theorem on Stationary Population

Quantitative Methods 2021-06-15 v1

Abstract

Carey's Equality pertaining to stationary models is well known. In this paper, we have stated and proved a fundamental theorem related to the formation of this Equality. This theorem will provide an in-depth understanding of the role of each captive subject, and their corresponding follow-up duration in a stationary population. We have demonstrated a numerical example of a captive cohort and the survival pattern of medfly populations. These results can be adopted to understand age-structure and aging process in stationary and non-stationary population population models. Key words: Captive cohort, life expectancy, symmetric patterns.
