In this thesis, basic concepts of populational models are studied from a theoretical point of view, especially the long term behaviours. All models are at least time dependent with additional age structure, spatial structure. The last model which is an extension of the von Foerster equation, is dependent on all o f these structures and have a long-term solution for large values of time. Modeling population is a frequent subject in modern biology. It is hard to create a model that appears as realistic as possible. First one might consider that a population size is governed by the current size of the population, along with rates of how each individual contributes (give birth), so that the population increases. and how frequent an individual dies, causing the population to decrease in size. However these sort of models can only describe the size of population in a shorter span of time.
