Using the well-known relation \({}_{s+u}p_y={}_up_{y+s} \times {}_sp_y\), we compute \({}_tp_{x}\) as for all \(x,t\in\mathbb R_+\) \[ {}_tp_{x} = \frac{{}_{t+\epsilon_x}p_{\lfloor x\rfloor} }{{}_{\epsilon_x}p_{\lfloor x\rfloor}} = \frac{{}_{\lfloor u\rfloor}p_{\lfloor x\rfloor} \times {}_{\epsilon_u}p_{\lfloor x\rfloor+\lfloor u\rfloor} }{{}_{\epsilon_x}p_{\lfloor x\rfloor}} \] with \(\epsilon_x=x - \lfloor x\rfloor\), \(u=t+\epsilon_x\) and \(\epsilon_u=u-\lfloor u\rfloor\).
Then we estimate \({}_np_{m}\) as for all \(n,m\in\mathbb N\) \[ {}_np_{m} = \frac{l_{n+m}}{l_m}. \]
We interpolate fractional age probabilities by three classical assumptions for all \(y \in [0,1), m\in\mathbb N\) \[ {}_{y}p_{m} = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} 1 - y (1-p_{m}) & \text{if uniform distribution} \\ (p_{m})^y & \text{if constant force} \\ \frac{p_{m}}{1-(1-y)(1-p_{m})} & \text{if hyperbolic distribution} \\ \end{array} \right. \]
