Structured population models, which are transport-type equations, are commonly employed to depict the evolution of diverse populations of biological cells, animals, or humans, encompassing phenomena such as crowd dynamics or pedestrian flows. This comprehensive book offers an in-depth exploration of the mathematical foundations underlying these applications, furnishing a robust analytical framework for structured population models in spaces of Radon measures. By adopting a unified approach, the text enables the study of transport processes on structures that deviate from vector spaces, such as traffic flow on graphs, and facilitates the analysis of the numerical algorithms employed in various applications. Spanning over a decade of groundbreaking research in the field, the text incorporates appendices that provide essential background material and shed light on current trends in the theory, empowering graduate students to swiftly delve into cutting-edge research.
