| Gompertz' hypothesis | A theory that the force of mortality increases in geometrical progression, being based on the assumption that the average exhaustion of a person's power to avoid death is such that at the end of equal infinitely small intervals of time he loses equal proportions of the power to oppose destruction which he had at the commencement of each of these intervals. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gompertz' law | The proportional relationship of mortality to age; after age 35-40, the increase in mortality with age tends to be logarithmic. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gompertz' law (formula) |

| Gompertz's l. |
at advanced ages the risk of dying increases geometrically with age: the death rate at age x may be computed by the formula qx = q0 e ax, where qx is the death rate at age x, q0 is the death rate at age 0, and a is a constant. From middle age on, actual death rates closely approximate the curve that corresponds to this formula.
