Introdution to the evolutionary dynamics.

Fabio Chalub (Universidade Nova de Lisboa)

In the year we celebrate the 200^th anniversary of Charles Darwin, nothing better than a survey in the mathematics of the theory of evolution.

In this series of two lectures, we will present simple and hot topics associated to the rigorous study of the evolution. This will include the Hardy-Weinberg law, discrete and continuous evolutionary process and an introduction to the evolutionary game theory.
