Unstable periodic wave solutions of nerve axion diffusion equations.
We prove a generalization of the Douady-Oesterlé theorem on the upper bound of the Hausdorff dimension of an invariant set of a smooth map on an infinite dimensional manifold. It is assumed that the linearization of this map is a noncompact linear operator. A similar estimate is given for the Hausdorff dimension of an invariant set of a dynamical system generated by a differential equation on a Hilbert manifold.
