A system of state-dependent delay differential equation modelling forest growth I: semiflow properties

Abstract

In this article we investigate the semiflow properties of a class of state-dependent delay differential equations which is motivated by some models describing the dynamics of the number of adult trees in forests. We investigate the existence and uniqueness of a semiflow in the space of Lipschitz and C1 weighted functions. We obtain a blow-up result when the time approaches the maximal time of existence. We conclude the paper with an application of a spatially structured forest model.
