SynopsisA Volterra integro-partial differential equation of parabolic type, which describes the time evolution of a population in a bounded habitat, subject both to past history and space diffusion effects, is investigated; general homogeneous boundary conditions are admissible. Under suitable conditions, the unique nontrivial nonnegative equilibrium is shown to be globally attractive in the supremum norm. Monotone methods are the main tool of the proof.

A partial differential equation of physics may be defined as a linear second-order equation which is derivable from a Hamiltonian Principle by means of the methods of the Calculus of Variations. This principle states that the actual course of events in a physical problem is such that it gives to a certain integral a stationary value.
