Evolutionary Games and Population Genetics (MATH0082)

The course concerns two areas of theoretical biology, evolutionary game theory and population genetics where mathematics has played in important role in their theoretical development. While the necessary biological background is covered in the course, the emphasis is more on the mathematical theory. Models are developed and theorems are proved to determine how these models behave under various biological assumptions. Many of the models are dynamical systems, and a significant part of the course is introducing and using methods for differential equations and iterated maps to study them. The generality of the key models enables us to prove a range of theorems that yield important and fundamental results in both mathematical genetics and game theory.

The course may of interest to students from other departments, but they should be aware that it requires a strong mathematical background and a willingness to engage with mathematical proofs.

This course is independent of the course MATH0030 (Mathematical Ecology).

International and Global Environmental Law (LAWS0274)

This module will investigate environmental law in a global context, examining the main principles, instruments and approaches of international and global law that address environmental challenges.

This module will explore the range of laws and norms that impact on global environmental problems. There are diverse bodies of environmental law that regulate and affect environmental law problems globally, including classic forms of public international law and increasingly transnational, regional and networked bodies of environmental norms. The module will explore these different kinds of law and how they have developed in an environmental context.
