SynopsisWe consider a class of non-linear evolution equations subject to a periodic forcing term. Using bifurcation theory we obtain results on the existence and number of periodic solutions. The theory applies to semi-linear diffusion equations defined on bounded or unbounded domains.

In this paper the theory of Browder [2] and of Lions [3] on periodic solutions of non-linear evolution equations in Banach spaces is put in a more general framework so as to include the Navier-Stokes equations and their variants.An abstract existence theorem is proved in § 1. Applications are given in § 2. The existence of periodic solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations without any restriction on the dimension of the space domain is established. Application of the abstract theorem to the following problem is given:1. Let H be a Hilbert space and (., .)H the inner product in H. Let V and W be two reflexive separable Banach spaces with W ⊂ V ⊂ H. W is dense in V and V is dense in H.
