On Dirichlet problem for a class of delayed reaction-diffusion equations with spatial non-locality (Q2439756)

The authors study a very general class of delayed reaction-diffusion equations which covers the non-monotone as well as the spatially non-local reaction term. The global asymptotic behavior of solutions subject to homogeneous Dirichlet condition is studied by using a comparison method and a dynamical system approach. The existence, uniqueness and global attractivity of a positive steady state solution to the problem is studied. The authors also establish threshold results and global attractivity of the trivial steady state. To illustrate the effectiveness of the analytical results, the examples of the local delayed diffusive Mackey-Glass equation and the nonlocal delayed diffusive Nicholson blowfly equation are taken.
