Boundedness in a chemotaxis-haptotaxis model with nonlinear diffusion

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: This article deals with an initial-boundary value problem for the coupled chemotaxis-haptotaxis system with nonlinear diffusion �egin{align*} u_t=&

ablacdot(D(u) abla u)-chi ablacdot(u abla v)-xi ablacdot(u

abla w)+mu u(1-u-w),\ v_t=&Delta v-v+u,\ w_t=&-vwend{align*} under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a bounded smooth domain OmegasubsetmathbbRn, n=2,3,4, where chi,xi and mu are given nonnegative parameters. The diffusivity D(u) is assumed to satisfy D(u)geqdeltaum1 for all u>0 with some delta>0. It is proved that for sufficiently regular initial data global bounded solutions exist whenever m>2frac2n. For the case of non-degenerate diffusion (i.e. D(0)>0) the solutions are classical; for the case of possibly degenerate diffusion (D(0)geq0), the existence of bounded weak solutions is shown.
