A result on the existence and uniqueness of stationary solutions for a bioconvective flow model

Abstract

In this note we prove the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions for the boundary value problem modelling the stationary case of the bioconvective flow problem introduced by Tuval et. al. (2005, PNAS 102, 2277--2282). We derive some appropriate a priori estimates for the weak solution, which implies the existence, by application of Gossez theorem, and the uniqueness by standard methodology of comparison of two arbitrary solutions.
