Study of a general growth model

Statistical Mechanics 2024-02-05 v1 Probability

Abstract

We discuss a general growth curve including several parameters, whose choice leads to a variety of models including the classical cases of Malthusian, Richards, Gompertz, Logistic and some their generalizations. The advantage is to obtain a single mathematically tractable equation from which the main characteristics of the considered curves can be deduced. We focus on the effects of the involved parameters through both analytical results and computational evaluations.
