This paper is devoted to the study of Nicholson's blowflies equation with diffusion: a kind of time-delayed reaction diffusion. For any travelling wavefront with speed c > c* (c* is the minimum wave speed), we prove that the wavefront is time-asymptotically stable when the delay-time is sufficiently small, and the initial perturbation around the wavefront decays to zero exponentially in space as x → −∞, but it can be large in other locations. The result develops and improves the previous wave stability obtained by Mei et al. in 2004. The new approach developed in this paper is the comparison principle combined with the technical weighted-energy method. Numerical simulations are also carried out to confirm our theoretical results.
