## Abstract A system of ordinary differential equations, which describes the interaction of HIV and __T__βcells in the immune system is utilized, and optimal controls representing drug treatment strategies of this model are explored. Two types of treatments are used, and existence and uniqueness re

A continuous age-structured population model with two population groups, juveniles and adults, and with a dynamics for the resource, is considered. The only density dependence is through a uniform increase of the death rates. A complete description of the asymptotic behavior of the population dynami
Here we investigate the optimal harvesting of an age-structured population. We use the McKendrick model of population dynamics, and optimize a discounted yield on an infinite time horizon. The harvesting function is allowed to depend arbitrarily on age and time and its magnitude is unconstrained. We
