Abstract
A system of parabolic equations is considered: Lui = uit − uix = fi (x, t, u, uix) on Q, Biui(j, t) = ωij(t), t [formula omitted] (−∞, ∞), j = 0, 1, i = 1, 2, …, n, where Bi is one of the boundary operators Biui = ui or Biui = ∂ui/∂v + βi(x, t)ui, x = 0, 1, Ω = (0, 1), Q = Ω × R, u(=(u1, …, un)): Q → Rn, v(x) is the outward normal to the boundary ∂Ω, f, u, ω0, ω1 are n-valued functions and f, ω0, ω1 are periodic in t with period T and Bi is a positive function. The paper is classified into two parts. The first part deals with the existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions of the above system of parabolic equations. The second part deals with a monotone iterative method which develops a monotone iterative scheme for the solution of the above system of equations. In this paper we establish the existence of coupled quasi-solutions of the above equation. Also we give a monotone iterative scheme for the construction of such a solution. © 1984, Australian Mathematical Society. All rights reserved.
