Abstract

This research work deals with mathematical modeling in complex biological systems in which several types of individuals coexist in various populations. Migratory phenomena among the populations are allowed. We propose a class of mathematical models to describe the demographic dynamics of these type of complex systems. The probability model is defined through a sequence of random matrices in which rows and columns represent the various populations and the several types of individuals, respectively. We prove that this stochastic sequence can be studied under the general setting provided by the multitype branching process theory. Probabilistic properties and limiting results are then established. As application, we present an illustrative example about the population dynamics of biological systems formed by long-lived raptor colonies.
