Periodic solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations in a perturbed half‐space and an aperture domain

We shall construct a periodic strong solution of the Navier–Stokes equations for some periodic external force in a perturbed half‐space and an aperture domain of the dimension n?3. Our proof is based on L^p–L^q estimates of the Stokes semigroup. We apply L^p–L^q estimates to the integral equation which is transformed from the original equation. As a result, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of periodic strong solutions. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
