✦ Synopsis
This paper deals with Rotenberg's models of cell populations with general boundary conditions. It is shown, ÿrst, that the associated Cauchy problem is governed by a C 0 -semigroup. Second, we have proved that if the boundary operator is positive, the transport semigroup is irreducible. And ÿnally, a spectral decomposition of the solution into an asymptotic term was derived.

## Abstract In this paper we establish some results regarding the existence of solution on __L__~1~ spaces to a nonlinear boundary value problem originally proposed by Lebowitz and Rubinow (__J. Math. Biol.__ 1974; **1**:17–36) to model an age‐structured proliferating cell population. Our approach,
