“…As for stability of the spatially homogeneous periodic solution to (E3), Yoshida [7] has proved that the bifurcating periodic solution near the bifurcation point, a = 7r/2, is stable. However, ir has not been made clear in [7] how the stability region of the bifurcation parameter, a, depends on other factors such as the diffusion constant, d, and the shape of the domain, t2.…”
