Nonlinear theory remedies the lack of invertibility in time periodic fluid flows

Abstract

This paper provides a framework to strong time periodic solutions of quasilinear evolution equations. The novelty of this approach is that zero is allowed to be a spectral value of the underlying linearized operator. This approach is then applied to time periodic problems associated to the Navier-Stokes equations, generalized Newtonian fluids, quasilinear reaction-diffusion systems as well as to magneto-hydrodynamics.
