We address a novel approach for stochastic individual-based modelling of a single species population. Individuals are distinguished by their remaining lifetimes, which are regulated by the interplay between the inexorable running of time…

A generalized spiked Fisher matrix is considered in this paper. We establish a criterion for the description of the support of the limiting spectral distribution of high-dimensional generalized Fisher matrix and study the almost sure limits…

We consider Schelling's bounded neighbourhood model (BNM) of unorganised segregation of two populations from the perspective of modern dynamical systems theory. We derive a Schelling dynamical system and carry out a complete quantitative…

We study coagulation-fragmentation equations inspired by a simple model proposed in fisheries science to explain data for the size distribution of schools of pelagic fish. Although the equations lack detailed balance and admit no…

We study the large-time behavior of Eulerian systems augmented with non-local alignment. Such systems arise as hydrodynamic descriptions of agent-based models for self-organized dynamics, e.g., Cucker-Smale and Motsch-Tadmor models…

We consider a discrete model that describes a locally regulated spatial population with mortality selection. This model was studied in parallel by Bolker and Pacala and Dieckmann, Law and Murrell. We first generalize this model by adding…

The Fisher-KPP model, and generalisations thereof, is a simple reaction-diffusion models of biological invasion that assumes individuals in the population undergo linear diffusion with diffusivity $D$, and logistic proliferation with rate…

We study a density-dependent Markov jump process describing a population where each individual is characterized by a type, and reproduces at rates depending both on its type and on the population type distribution. We are interested in the…

We present a novel method for solving population density equations (PDEs), where the populations can be subject to non-Markov noise for arbitrary distributions of jump sizes. The method combines recent developments in two different…

Building upon kinetic theory approaches for multi-agent systems and generalising them to scenarios where the total mass of the system is not conserved, we develop a modelling framework for phenotype-structured populations that makes it…

We determine limiting equations for large asymmetric `spin glass' networks. The initial conditions are not assumed to be independent of the disordered connectivity: one of the main motivations for this is that allows one to understand how…

We consider an asexually reproducing population on a finite type space whose evolution is driven by exponential birth, death and competition rates, as well as the possibility of mutation at a birth event. On the individual-based level this…

First proposed as an empirical rule over half a century ago, the Richards growth equation has been frequently invoked in population modeling and pandemic forecasting. Central to this model is the advent of a fractional exponent $\gamma$,…

We study reaction-diffusion particle systems with several interaction mechanisms. As the number of particles tends to infinity, the system admits a mean-field limit describing the bulk behaviour. We focus on determining the propagation…

We consider an asexual population evolving on rugged fitness landscapes which are defined on the multi-dimensional genotypic space and have many local optima. We track the most populated genotype as it changes when the population jumps from…

Populations evolving under the joint influence of recombination and resampling (traditionally known as genetic drift) are investigated. First, we summarise and adapt a deterministic approach, as valid for infinite populations, which assumes…
