Abstract:
Mathematical models of population dynamics highly rely on the assumption of determinism. One of the assumptions is that the present state determines the future state, leading to ordinary or reaction-diffusion equations with initial conditions. Models for populations structured by age (age-structured population systems) are motivated by an alternative assumption that the past determines the future. The theory of linear semigroups of operators has played central roles in the study of age-structured population models. In such classical linear semigroup theory, the associated operator is assumed to be densely defined in the state space. Another powerful approach in investigating age-structured models is to rewrite it as an abstract Cauchy problem in which the associated operator may be nondensely defined and the non Hille-Yosida case. It is worth noting that functional differential equations, parabolic partial differential equations, and partial differential equations with delay, can be formulated as non-densely defined Cauchy problems. For the non-densely defined case, Pierre Magal and Shigui Ruan develop an extension of linear operator semigroup theory to the case that the semigroup has an integrated form, that is, integrated semigroups.
In a series of talks, I shall introduce the theory of integrated semigroups of operators and applications of non-densely defined Cauchy problems.
