We study a model of population dynamics describing pregnancy: our model is composed by an equation describing the evolution of the total population, and an equation describing the evolution of pregnant individuals. These equations are of course coupled: one coupling expresses that the total population varies with the number of born people, and another coupling says that the number of fecundated individuals depends on the total population. We study three models of that type: a linear model without diffusion, a nonlinear model without diffusion and a linear model with diffusion. For these three models, we study precisely the qualitative properties and the asymptotic behavior of the solutions.

Abstract

We study a model of population dynamics describing pregnancy: our model is composed by an equation describing the evolution of the total population, and an equation describing the evolution of pregnant individuals. These equations are of course coupled: one coupling expresses that the total population varies with the number of born people, and another coupling says that the number of fecundated individuals depends on the total population. We study three models of that type: a linear model without diffusion, a nonlinear model without diffusion and a linear model with diffusion. For these three models, we study precisely the qualitative properties and the asymptotic behavior of the solutions.
