Abstract.
We provide the Hopf bifurcation theorem, which guarantees the existence of time periodic solution bifurcating from the stationary flow down an inclined plane under certain assumptions on the eigenvalues of the problem obtained by linearization around the stationary flow. Since we reduce the problem to the fixed domain, the inhomogeneous terms of reduced equations and reduced boundary conditions contain the highest derivatives. To deal with these we apply the Lyapunov–Schmidt decomposition directly.
