A new approach to loop analysis is presented in which decompositions of the total elasticity of a population projection matrix over a set of life history pathways are obtained as solutions of a constrained system of linear equations. In loop analysis, life history pathways are represented by loops in the life cycle graph, and the elasticity of the loop is interpreted as a measure of the contrib...
