Time periodic solutions to the Navier–Stokes equations in the rotational framework

We consider the Navier–Stokes equations in the rotational framework with the time periodic external force. We give sufficient conditions on the size of the external forces for the existence of time periodic solutions in terms of the Coriolis parameter. It follows from our conditions that the unique existence of time periodic solutions is guaranteed for large external forces provided the speed of rotation is sufficiently fast.     

On almost periodic solutions of logistic delay differential equations with almost periodic time dependence

In this paper, we study almost periodic logistic delay differential equations. The existence and module of almost periodic solutions are investigated. In particular, we extend some results of Seifert in [G. Seifert, Almost periodic solutions of certain differential equations with piecewise constant delays and almost periodic time dependence, J. Differential Equations 164 (2000) 451–458].     

Stability of two‐dimensional magnetohydrodynamic motions in the periodic case

We investigate the stability of two‐dimensional periodic solutions to magnetohydrodynamics equations in the class of three‐dimensional periodic solutions. We show the existence of global, strong three‐dimensional solutions to magnetohydrodynamics equations, which are close to two‐dimensional solutions. The advantage of our approach is that neither these solutions nor the external forces have to vanish at infinity. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Weighted pseudo almost periodic solutions of N-th order neutral differential equations with piecewise constant arguments

In this work, we present some existence theorems of weighted pseudo almost periodic solutions for N-th order neutral differential equations with piecewise constant argument by means of weighted pseudo almost periodic solutions of relevant difference equations.     

Almost periodic and pseudo-almost periodic solutions to fractional differential and integro-differential equations

We study the existence of almost periodic (resp., pseudo-almost periodic) mild solutions for fractional differential and integro-differential equations in the case when the forcing term belongs to the class of Stepanov almost (resp., Stepanov-like pseudo-almost) periodic functions.     

Behavior of bounded solutions for some almost periodic neutral partial functional differential equations

We establish a Bochner type characterization for Stepanov almost periodic functions, and we prove a new result about the integration of almost periodic functions. This result is then used together with a reduction principle to investigate the nature of bounded solutions of some almost periodic partial neutral functional differential equations. More specifically, we prove that all bounded solutions on are almost periodic. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Periodic and almost periodic solutions of conservation laws: Global existence and decay

In this paper we survey recent results on the decay of periodic and almost periodic solutions of conservation laws. We also recall some recent results on the global existence of periodic solutions of conservation laws systems which lie inBV _loc and are constructed through Glimm scheme. The latter motivates a discussion on a possible strategy for solving the open problem of the global existence of periodic solutions of the Euler equations for nonisentropic gas dynamics. We base our decay analysis on a general result about space-time functions which are almost periodic in the space variable, established here for the first time. This result is an abstract version of Theorem 2.1 in [31], which in turn is an extention of the combined result given by Theorems 3.1–3.2 in [9].

Recurrent solutions of the derivative Ginzburg–Landau equation with boundary forces

In this paper, we will establish the existence of the bounded solutions, periodic solutions, quasi-periodic solutions and almost periodic solutions for the derivative Ginzburg–Landau equation with time-dependent boundary external forces. A smoothing effect for the semigroup associated with linear Ginzburg–Landau operator is the crucial tool in establishing the main results.     

Pseudo almost periodic solutions of differential equations with piecewise constant arguments

In this paper, we give a definition of pseudo almost periodic sequence and study the existence of pseudo almost periodic sequence to difference equation. Based on these, we investigate the existence of pseudo almost periodic solutions to differential equations with piecewise constant arguments which was considered by K. L. Cooke & J. Wiener and found applications in certain biomedical problems.     

Limit periodic motions in some systems with aftereffect under resonance condition

Volterra-type integrodifferential equations and their solutions are considered which, when the time increases without limit, exponentially tend to periodic modes. In the critical case of stability, when the characteristic equation has a pair of pure imaginary roots and the remaining roots have negative real parts, the problem of the existence of limit periodic solutions with resonance, caused by coincidence between the periodic part of the limit external periodic perturbation and the natural frequency of the linearized system, is solved. It is shown that, if the right-hand side of the equation is an analytic function and the existence of limit periodic solutions is determined by terms of the (2m + 1)-th order, these solutions are represented by power series in the arbitrary initial values of the non-critical variables and the parameter μ^1/(2m+1), where μ is a small parameter, characterizing the magnitude of the maximum external periodic perturbation. The amplitude equations are presented.     

Weighted pseudo‐almost periodic functions on time scales with applications to cellular neural networks with discrete delays

In this paper, we first propose a concept of weighted pseudo‐almost periodic functions on time scales and study some basic properties of weighted pseudo‐almost periodic functions on time scales. Then, we establish some results about the existence of weighted pseudo‐almost periodic solutions to linear dynamic equations on time scales. Finally, as an application of our results, we study the existence and global exponential stability of weighted pseudo‐almost periodic solutions for a class of cellular neural networks with discrete delays on time scales. The results of this paper are completely new. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Almost periodic solutions of shunting inhibitory cellular neural networks on time scales

In this paper shunting inhibitory cellular neural networks (SICNNs) with time-varying and continuously distributed delays are considered on time scale T. Without assuming the global Lipschitz conditions of activation functions, some new sufficient conditions for the existence and asymptotic stability of the almost periodic solutions are established on time scales. Two numerical examples are given to illustrate our feasible results.     

Periodic solutions in unbounded domains for the Boussinesq system

Assuming that the external forces of the system are small enough, the reference temperature being a periodic function, we study the existence, the uniqueness and the regularity of time-periodic solutions for the Boussinesq equations in several classes of unbounded domains of Rn. Our analysis is based on the framework of weak-Lp spaces.     

Convergence in almost periodic cooperative systems with a first integral

This paper is to investigate the asymptotic dynamics in almost periodic cooperative systems with a first integral. By appealing to the theory of skew-product semiflows we establish the asymptotic almost periodicity of bounded solutions to such systems, which extends the existing convergence results for time independent and periodic cooperative systems with a first integral and proves a conjecture of B. Tang, Y. Kuang and H. Smith in SIAM J. Math. Anal., 24 (1993), 1331-1339.

     

The set of periodic scalar differential equations with cubic nonlinearities

We study the structure induced by the number of periodic solutions on the set of differential equations x^′=f(t,x) where f∈C³(R²) is T-periodic in t, fx³(t,x)<0 for every (t,x)∈R², and f(t,x)→?∞ as x→∞, uniformly on t. We find that the set of differential equations with a singular periodic solution is a codimension-one submanifold, which divides the space into two components: equations with one periodic solution and equations with three periodic solutions. Moreover, the set of differential equations with exactly one periodic singular solution and no other periodic solution is a codimension-two submanifold.

Almost periodic invariant tori for the NLS on the circle

In this paper we study the existence and linear stability of almost periodic solutions for a NLS equation on the circle with external parameters. Starting from the seminal result of Bourgain in [15] on the quintic NLS, we propose a novel approach allowing to prove in a unified framework the persistence of finite and infinite dimensional invariant tori, which are the support of the desired solutions. The persistence result is given through a rather abstract “counter-term theorem” à la Herman, directly in the original elliptic variables without passing to action-angle ones. Our framework allows us to find “many more” almost periodic solutions with respect to the existing literature and consider also non-translation invariant PDEs.     

Almost periodic linear differential equations with non-separated solutions

A celebrated result by Favard states that, for certain almost periodic linear differential systems, the existence of a bounded solution implies the existence of an almost periodic solution. A key assumption in this result is the separation among bounded solutions. Here we prove a theorem of anti-Favard type: if there are bounded solutions which are non-separated (in a strong sense) sometimes almost periodic solutions do not exist. Strongly non-separated solutions appear when the associated homogeneous system has homoclinic solutions. This point of view unifies two fascinating examples by Zhikov-Levitan and Johnson for the scalar case. Our construction uses the ideas of Zhikov-Levitan together with the theory of characters in topological groups.
