Modified Verhulst–Solow model for long-term population and economic growth

Abstract In this study, we analyze the relationship between human population growth and economic dynamics. To do so, we present a modified version of the Verhulst model and the Solow model, which together simulate population dynamics and the role of economic variables. The model incorporates support and foraging functions, which participate in the dynamic relationship between population growth and the creation and destruction of carrying capacity. The validity of the model is demonstrated using empirical data.
