The periodic version of the Da Prato–Grisvard theorem and applications to the bidomain equations with FitzHugh–Nagumo transport

Abstract

In this article, the periodic version of the classical Da Prato–Grisvard theorem on maximal Lp-regularity in real interpolation spaces is developed, as well as its extension to semilinear evolution equations. Applying this technique to the bidomain equations subject to ionic transport described by the models of FitzHugh–Nagumo, Aliev–Panfilov, or Rogers–McCulloch, it is proved that this set of equations admits a unique, strong T-periodic solution in a neighborhood of stable equilibrium points provided it is innervated by T-periodic forces.
