On determining individual behaviour from population data.
In a typical direct problem of structured population dynamics one uses model's features, like growth, survival or aging, at the individual level to study the behaviour at the level of the whole population. In many cases, however, we have at our disposal only the global data on the population level and need to determine individual properties of members of the population. This constitutes the inverse problem. The authors discuss several examples showing that the inverse problem may be ill-posed, especially when the initial population is at a demographic equilibrium, and present a theorem giving sufficient conditions for its well-posedness. The proof of this theorem is referred to the paper \textit{M. Gyllenberg, V. Osipov} and \textit{L. Päivärinta} [J. Evol. Equ. 2, No. 2, 223--239 (2002; Zbl 1054.35128)].
