Abstract
The present study investigates an invariant property of the class of population survival functions that characterize the dynamics of population systems. Building on our previous group-theoretical analysis, we establish that the set of all monotonic survival functions is closed under the operations of translation (shift), rotation by an angle \(\pi\), and the transformation \(1 – \alpha(z)\), thereby forming the group \(K \times G\). It is shown that this group admits a representation in the form of the group \(SM(3, R)\), which provides a constructive description of the corresponding transformations. Within this framework, it is proven that an arbitrary monotonic survival function can be represented as α(z) = a₂₃ + a₂₂ exp(−|a₁₁z(t) − a₁₃|), taking into account the elements of the transformation group \(SM(3, R)\). The obtained results suggest the existence of a universal invariant property of the class of population survival functions, which is preserved irrespective of species identity.
