• On the mutation time scale, the microscopic process converges to an age-structured TSS. — Trait Substitution Sequence process and Canonical Equation for age-structured populations
• The resident population's rate of mutant production is the mutation probability multiplied by total births across the equilibrium age distribution. — Trait Substitution Sequence process and Canonical Equation for age-structured populations
• The TSS generator includes mutant production by the resident age equilibrium and mutant invasion probability. — Trait Substitution Sequence process and Canonical Equation for age-structured populations
• The rare-mutation scaling places mutation times between ecological relaxation times and exponentially rare departures from equilibrium. — Trait Substitution Sequence process and Canonical Equation for age-structured populations
• The limiting TSS requires strong time-scale separation and stable monomorphic equilibria. — Trait Substitution Sequence process and Canonical Equation for age-structured populations
• The limiting TSS is a Markov jump process between monomorphic equilibrium age distributions. — Trait Substitution Sequence process and Canonical Equation for age-structured populations
