Global attractivity of a positive periodic solution for a nonautonomous stage structured population dynamics with time delay and diffusion ✩

By employing the continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory, the existence of a positive periodic solution for a nonautonomous stage structured population dynamics with time delay and diffusion is established. Further, by constructing a Lyapunov functional and using the result of the existence of positive periodic solution, the attractivity of a positive periodic solution for above system is obtained.  2006 Elsevier Inc.
