Since you want an exact Exponential Distribution with a mean of 100, I just found an online calculator and put in it for you. Just multiply the Y Axis by your total population.

I know this might be viewed as a tongue in cheek answer but you did literally say we'll say that distribution of lifespans is exactly an exponential distribution with mean 100 years and In particular, we'll assume that some sort of steady-state has been reached.

Now if you factored in something different, like the fatality rate from ages 0-5 is 500% higher and the fatality rate from ages 100+ is 500% higher, you might get some more interesting looking curves. But you have basically told us the answer in your question. An exponential distribution with mean 100 years.

Asymptotic curve

The average age of this population is 99.
I did this in a way I could wrap my head around it, using excel.

Imagine that each year 1% of each birth cohort dies of disease or accidents. You have a population of 1,000,000. Your biggest cohort is of course infants: you have 10000 of them and they are 1% of your population. 1% die and your population of 1 year olds is 9900. 1% die and your population of 2 year olds is 9801.

Each year, the 1% that is subtracted from the population is a smaller amount. That gives you an asymptotic curve as in the diagram above.

I wish my math were good enough to provide a multiplier such that for any age you could figure the # of individuals of that age in the population of 1,000,000. But I did it up in excel to make the graph. Lacking elegant math, I would make the graph and then use the curve to approximate number of individuals of any given age.

In my model (with average age 99; I think because of rounding) there were 3660 100 year old individuals comprising 0.366% of the population. There were 9 700 year olds and, of course, 1 1000 year old.

I don't think there's enough information available to give a concrete answer to this. Maybe someone else can, but I don't think it's possible.

So much depends on things we don't know, such as how long this has been going on, and when/how this immortality began.

Here's what I mean: If this technology/magic were instituted immediately it means that, in general, we'd expect each person to die, a hundred years from their DOB. (As an average) If this took place in the modern U.S. the generations would be locked into rolling waves.

For example, according to wiki 1.8% of the population is 85 or older. Based on your criteria, when that generation dies, it is replaced with exactly the same number of new births.

So what happens is that the age distribution numbers are almost the same, but switch places. That 1.8% drops to the 'bottom' of the age distribution. 80-85 years later, the wave 'peaks' and what used to be 15-19 year olds at ~7% of the population are now all about 100 years old.

It won't be exact, but if that's close to how one scenario would play out. You'd have to remove the percentages of deaths that are from most 'natural causes' while keeping deaths by accident, contagious disease, homicide and suicide, you'd need some noise, and the math would be pretty granular, but stick to the general 'wave' pattern.

Or

It takes effect by socioeconomic strata, or by state mandate, etc. And depending on how long this has been going on, given the admitted population controls, it could be literally anything you wanted it to be. A society could have it locked at 1% birth rate, every year, into eternity.

The first thing we have to look at is a population pyramid. Below is the 2015 pyramid from CIA world factbook data.

https://www.indexmundi.com/world/age_structure.html

We currently have a hint of population growth at the bottom, then dropping off through to an upper limit of around 100. Median age of 30.4. (You've asked for average age rather than median age, this is far harder to calculate.)

Since you have stated a static population, with good healthcare in peacetime, the pyramid should be less of a pyramid and more of a column, starting to taper off where aggregate accident rates and incurable medical conditions start to kill people off.

An aging population would be narrow at the bottom with a bulge higher up. A growing population is more a classic pyramid.

A quick and dirty answer would be to extend the above pyramid age ranges 3fold, but of course this pyramid is limited by natural age limitations hence would not be valid.

The shape you're looking for is going to be a cumulative normal distribution of death rates rather than a clean exponential decay as others have suggested.

Lets say there a thousand humans (a really small earth).
If we distributed them roughly across ages so they balance out at 100. I could have a:

• very dense demographic with lots of 100 year olds.


• a split demographic with many young individuals say 10-20, and many older individuals 180-190.


• or some kind of flat demographic ~5 people of each age between 0 and 200.

That is the distribution you've described. Take your pick.

If you want something more realistic... (and grossly oversimplified).

Then lets consider mortality. Without aging doing any killing by itself, you'll find that we die purely from disease and accidents. This probably won't change the mortality rate very much. I'll draw some figures from Australian adult deaths. So roughly 0.0468% to 0.0782% of the population dies due to something.

That's about 46-78 dead humans a year (in our thousand human population). So about that many births per year.

• 78 one year olds


• 73 two year olds


• 65 three year olds


• 63 four year olds


• 20 five year olds


• 15 six year olds


• 80 six year olds


• 45 seven year olds


• 46 eight year olds


• 48 nine year olds


• 20 ten year olds


• 72 eleven year olds


• 12 twelve year olds


• 22 thirteen year olds


• 46 fourteen year olds


• 23 fifteen year olds


• 31 sixteen year olds


• 87 seventeen year olds


• 44 eighteen year olds


• 38 nineteen year olds


• 22 twenty year olds


• 56 twenty-one year olds


• 64 twenty-two year olds

and because of the small population cap, 51 people are executed at random. But if you raised it, to something more manageable, you'll see that this roughly makes a flat population that will slowly taper out (at the rate of a 5 hundredths of a percent).

Lets see what this population looks like, but with no ritualised forced deaths, and every member living till natural causes (like accidents) kill them. Lets also keep that median straight on top of 100 (roughly speaking).

• A is the number of 100 year olds


• B is the total number of years past 100 that the oldest individual (roughly) is.


• C is half the total population.


• D is the death rate.


• E is the eldest member.


• Y is the total number of new borns.



• X is the difference between the total 100 year olds, and the total newborns.




• X = 100 * D



• Y = A + X


• A = B * D


• C = 100 * X / 2 + 100 * A


• C = A * B / 2


• E = 100 + B

This is represents two triangles and a rectangle like:

 *
 **
 * *
X* *
 * *
 +****+
 * **
 * * *
A* * *
 * * *
 * * *
 *****+******
 100 B

So assuming D = 0.0005

• X = 0.05


• A = B * 0.0005


• B = (1/0.0005) * A


• B = 2000 * A


• C = A * B / 2


• C = A * (2000 * A) / 2



• C = 1000 * A * A




• C = 100 * 0.05 / 2 + 100 * A




• C = 100 * A + 2.5




• C = C



• 100 * A + 2.5 = 1000 * A * A


• 0 = 1000 * A * A - 100 * A - 2.5



• A ~= 0.12071...




• A = B * D



• B = A / D


• B ~= 0.12071 / 0.0005



• B ~= 241.42




• Y = A + X




• Y ~= 0.12071 + 0.05




• E = 100 + B



• E = 100 + 241.42


• E = 341.42

So the oldest thing is roughly 341.42 years old.
And their lives one 17th of a newborn. For a median age of 100. (Statistically speaking). That is a total average population of 341.42 * 0.17071 / 2 ~= 29.141 individuals.

29 people isn't a satisfying population. Its an almost extinct one. Lets take the approximately 7 billion people alive today, and give them a shot of immortality. and institute the replacement only birth rate, with the constant death rate of 0.0005. (Lets say immortality makes people more adventurous and take on risks, without learning much about avoiding them). Fast forward many years and allow the natural randomness to even out a little, (so that I can use the simple triangle model and ignore every other event).

• D = 7,000,000,000


• D = A * B / 2


• C = A / B



• C = 0.0005




• A/B = 0.0005



• A = 0.0005 * B


• 7,000,000,000 = A * B / 2


• 7,000,000,000 = 0.0005 * B * B / 2


• 7,000,000,000 * 2 / 0.0005 = B * B


• B * B = 28,000,000,000,000


• B ~= 5,291,502.62


• A = 0.0005 * B


• A = 2645.75

So natural causes gives the oldest person at about 5.3 million years old. Most people would have "accidentally" died by now.

Also there are around 2645 new infants born every year. This means a mere 6 average-large sized schools of each level of education are sufficient for educating the entire population. Imagine that, overnight most of the worlds schools can just be shutdown. Of course there will now be a large upswing in golf-course requirements.

Hope this helps paint a very crude picture.
