Global attractivity of the diffusive Nicholson blowflies equation with Neumann boundary condition: A non-monotone case

Abstract: In this paper, we establish the global attractivity of the positive steady state of the diffusive Nicholson''s equation with homogeneous Neumann boundary value under a condition that makes the equation a non-monotone dynamical system. To achieve this, we develop a novel method: combining a dynamical systems argument with maximum principle and some subtle inequalities. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
