Global exponential convergence in a delayed almost periodic Nicholson's blowflies model with discontinuous harvesting

This paper is concerned with a delayed Nicholson's blowflies model with discontinuous harvesting, which is described by an almost periodic nonsmooth dynamical system. Under some reasonable assumptions on the discontinuous harvesting function, by using the Filippov regulation techniques and the theory of dichotomy, together with the Halanay inequality, we establish some new criteria on the existence of positive almost periodic solution and its convergence. An example with numerical simulation is also presented to support the theoretical results.
