✦ Synopsis

A general mathematical formulation for the age-structured population model with genetic mutations is given. The probability of genetic mutations are expressed by a matrix named the "mutation matrix". The steady state of the Penna-type models with XOR-and OR-type mutations are analyzed. The mutation matrix of OR-type mutation turns out to be triangular, making an analytic treatment remarkably easier. Results about infinite bit-length limit are included.

A linear model on age structured cell population is analyzed. The population is divided into proliferating and quiescent compartments. Necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the population to exhibit the asymptotic behavior of asynchronous exponential growth. The model is analyzed a
