The paper develops a mathematical model to show that male-biased longevity evolves more readily in monogamous species due to asymmetrical life-history trade-offs between reproduction and survival.

The paper uses an individual-based model to study how inbreeding and demography affect population recovery from bottlenecks, finding that the firework approach is more effective than the stepping-stone approach.

This study challenges the idea that long-lived organisms adapt more slowly, showing that generation time's effect on adaptive evolution depends on the type of selection acting on fitness components.

This study presents a theoretical model showing that eusociality can evolve in promiscuous species if mothers manipulate offspring size, leading to social polymorphism and dispersal strategies.
