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

In this paper, we establish the global attractivity of the positive steady state of the diffusive Nicholsonʹs 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.
