Abstract

In this paper we consider a particular type of differential equation that we can consider as a simple model for the problem of the cooperation/competition of infinite species. In this model each of the species meets each of the other species with a degree of competition or cooperation and their arrangements affect the evolution of the species. A first result of the existence of a unique, local-in-time, solution is given.
