Discrete-Time Dynamics of Structured Populations and Homogeneous Order-Preserving Operators Frank Smith Chickie-Wolfe has captured many ofA fundamental question in the theory of discrete and continuous time population models concerns the conditions for the extinction or persistence of populations a question that is addressed mathematically by persistence theory. For some time, it has been recognized that if the dynamics of a structured population are mathematically captured by continuous or discrete semiflows and if these semiflows have first order approximations, the spectral radii of
