We study the long-time behaviour of a population structured by age and a phenotypic trait under a selection-mutation dynamics. By analysing spectral properties of a family of positive operators on measure spaces, we show the existence of eventually singular stationary solutions. When the stationary measures are absolutely continuous with a continuous density, we show the convergence of the dynamics to the unique equilibrium.

Keywords: Partial differential equation, age-structured population dynamics, selection-mutation equation, Long-time behaviour, non-local operators.
