- In this paper we formulate a continuous opinion model that takes into account population growth, i.e. increase with time in the number of interacting agents $N(t)$. In our setting the population growth is governed by a generic growth rate function $b(t, N(t))$. The two main components of our model are the growth rate $b(t, N(t))$, as well as the opinions of the incoming agents which are modeled in our system as boundary conditions in a free boundary problem. We give results on the well-posedness of the model and results that showcase how these two components affect the long time asymptotic behavior of our system. Moreover, we provide a kinetic (probabilistic) description of our model and give results on well-posedness and asymptotics for the kinetic model.
