Abstract:
We consider a coupled chemotaxis-fluid model for periodic pattern formation on two and three dimensional domains with mixed nonhomogeneous boundary value conditions, and prove the existence of nontrivial time periodic solutions. It is worth noticing that this system admits more than one periodic solution. In fact, it is not difficult to verify that $(0, c, 0, 0)$ is a time periodic solution, our purpose is to obtain a time periodic solution with nonconstant bacterial density.
