Abstract
The analysis of the discrete-time dynamics of structured iteroparous populations involves a basic yearly turnover operator \(B = A + H\) with a structural transition operator A and a mating and fertility operator H. A and H map a normal complete cone \(X_+\) of an ordered normed vector space X into itself and are (positively) homogenous and continuous on \(X_+\), A is additive and H is order-preserving. Assume that \(\textbf{r}(A) < 1\) for the spectral radius of A. Let \(H R_1\) with \(R_1 = \sum _{j=0}^\infty A^j\) be the next generation operator and \({\mathcal T}= \textbf{r}(B)\), the spectral radius of B, be the (basic) turnover number and \({\mathcal R}= \textbf{r}( H R_1)\) be the (basic) reproduction number. We explore conditions for a turnover/reproduction trichotomy, namely one (and only one) of the following three possibilities to hold: (i) \(1 < {\mathcal T}\le {\mathcal R}\), (ii) \(1 = {\mathcal T}= {\mathcal R}\), (iii) \( 1 > {\mathcal T}\ge {\mathcal R}\). In some cases, one may also like to consider the lower reproduction number \( {\mathcal R}_\diamond = \lim _{\lambda \rightarrow 1+} \textbf{r}(H R_\lambda )\), \(R_\lambda = \sum _{j=0}^\infty \lambda ^{-(n+1)} A^n\). \({\mathcal R}_\diamond \) is also useful to study the case \(\textbf{r}(A) =1\) to explore conditions for the dichotomy \( 1 = {\mathcal T}\ge {\mathcal R}_\diamond \) or \( 1 < {\mathcal T}\le {\mathcal R}_\diamond \le \infty \).
