The principal eigenvalue problem for time-periodic nonlocal equations with drift
Abstract
In this work, we consider a general time-periodic linear transport equation with integral source term. We prove the existence of a Floquet principal eigenvalue, namely a real number such that the equation rescaled by this number admits nonnegative periodic solutions. We also prove the exponential attractiveness of these solutions. The method relies on general spectral results about positive operators.
