The theory of maximal monotone operators is applied to prove the existence of weak periodic solutions for a nonlinear nonlocal problem. The stability of these solutions is a consequence of the Lipschitz continuous assumption on the diffusivity matrix and the death rate.
We consider a class of degenerate reaction-diffusion equations on a bounded domain with nonlinear flux on the boundary. These problems arise in the mathematical modelling of flow through porous media. We prove, under appropriate hypothesis, the existence and uniqueness of the nonnegative weak periodic solution. To establish our result, we use the Schauder fixed point theorem and some regularizing arguments.
In this paper, we are concerned with the semilinear parabolic equation ∂u/∂t - Δu = g(t,x,u) if u = 0 if , where is a bounded domain with smooth boundary ∂Ω and is T-periodic with respect to the first variable. The existence and the multiplicity of T-periodic solutions for this problem are shown when g(t,x,ξ)/ξ lies between two higher eigenvalues of - Δ in Ω with the Dirichlet boundary condition as ξ → ±∞.
