Abstract: During the last hundred years the birth rates on Sundays changed dramatically with a neutral point around 1955. Modern birth regulation is considered as the main reason for that. Medical backgrounds for this situation were discussed in the 1970s. Prior to that no analysis has relevant case numbers. The time from conception to birth measured in days is divisable by 7. The time of conception is relevant in relation to social aspects. Conception rates can be determined under the assumption that we can split up the population in a low and a high risk share. This consideration principally leads to an instable problem on a discrete cyclic space. But using some limiting considerations we get a numerically stable solution with feasible characteristics. For observing long time changes we need a relevant smoothing operator. In numerical calculations we look for a quadratic minimum solution or alternatively a linear program. For the discussion of inequality the concept of Shannon entropy as wel l as and Lorenz curve and Gini coefficient are relevant. (More)
