Dynamical BLUP modeling of reaction norm evolution, accommodating changing environments, overlapping generations, and multivariate data [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 For theoretical studies, reaction norm evolution in a changing environment can be modeled by means of the multivariate breeder's equation, with the reaction norm parameters treated as traits in their own right.

Distribution of the fittest individuals and the rate of Muller's ratchet in a model with overlapping generations. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2013 Muller's ratchet is a paradigmatic model for the accumulation of deleterious mutations in a population of finite size. A click of the ratchet occurs when all individuals with the least number of deleterious mutations are lost irreversibly due to a ...

Selection theory with overlapping generations [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 1978 The implications for selection of genetic differences between animals of different ages and between progeny of the same age but from parents of different ages are discussed. Correct definitions of generation length and of selection differential when replacements are selected disproportionately from parental-age subgroups can be made in two ways ...

OUTWARD HABITS AND ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY IN AN OVERLAPPING GENERATIONS MODEL [PDF]
Oradea Journal of Business and Economics, 2021 Outward habit formation affects consumption decisions. Since consumption displays a negative environmental externality, outward habits has as well an (adverse) effect on the environment.

Efficient calculation of all steady states in large-scale overlapping generations models [PDF]
Mathematics and Modeling in Finance, 2023 In this paper, we address the problem of analyzing and computing all steady states of an overlapping generation (OLG) model with production and many generations.

Simulating the Effect of Population Aging and Government Policies on Economic Growth in the Context of an Overlapping Generation Model [PDF]
فصلنامه پژوهشهای اقتصادی ایران, 2022 In this paper, the effect of population aging on economic growth in a closed economy in which the element of human capital is endogenously formed is simulated.

Complementary funded pensions and economic growth: Theoretical and empirical evidence using an overlapping generations model applied to the case of Tunisia [PDF]
Ekonomski Anali, 2021 This paper presents a prospective analysis to guide effective pension reform. Using an overlapping generations model with differing returns on free savings and compulsory returns on funded pensions, we put into perspective the results largely ...

New cycle, same old mistakes? Overlapping vs. discrete generations in long-term recurrent selection
BMC Genomics, 2022 Background Recurrent selection is a foundational breeding method for quantitative trait improvement. It typically features rapid breeding cycles that can lead to high rates of genetic gain.

Negative Real Balance Effects in the Presence of Involuntary Unemployment
Ekonomika, 2021 We examine positive or negative real balance effect (or so-called Pigou effect) by falls in the nominal wage rate and the prices of the goods in situations where there is involuntary unemployment using a three-generations overlapping generations model ...

Education financing and growth using an overlapping generations model: A theoretical perspective [PDF]
Ekonomski Anali, 2013 This paper proposes an overlapping generations model along the lines of the papers by Glomm and Ravikumar (1997). Its aim is to provide a theoretical extension in which we establish, in an original framework, a comparison of public and private ...
