Abstract

In this paper we model the population dynamics of the worm Nais elinguis, which reproduces by division into two unequal parts. By using renewal theory we derive the asymptotic behaviour of a Naidis elinguis population. In particular we prove a certain relation between the fraction of the population that was born small (respectively the fraction that was born large) and the inter-division times.
