Influence of mutations in phenotypically-structured populations in time periodic environment

Résumé

We study a parabolic Lotka-Volterra equation, with an integral term representing competition, and time periodic growth rate. This model represents a trait structured population in a time periodic environment. After showing the convergence of the solution to the periodic periodic solution of the problem, we study the influence of different factors on the mean limit population. As this quantity is the opposite of a certain eigenvalue, we are able to investigate the influence of the diffusion rate, the period length and the time variance of the environment fluctuations. We also give biological interpretation of the results in the framework of cancer, if the model represents a cancerous cells population under the influence of a periodic treatment. In this framework, we show that the population might benefit from a intermediate rate of mutation.
