Emergence of populations. H(W) theory.

Abstract: We study how populations emerge when starting with just a few individuals, maybe only one, and then growing to its (large) carrying capacity K. We prove an old conjecture and suggest new approximations.

The talk is based on a number of papers with: Andrew Barbour, Pavel Chigansky, Peter Jagers, Kais Hamza, and PhD students Jeremy Baker and Naor Bauman.
