Global existence and convergence rates for the strong solutions in \(H^2\) to the 3D chemotaxis model (Q1789880)

Summary: We are concerned with a 3D chemotaxis model arising from biology, which is a coupled hyperbolic-parabolic system. We prove the global existence of a strong solution when \(H^2\)-norm of the initial perturbation around a constant state is sufficiently small. Moreover, if additionally, \(L^1\)-norm of the initial perturbation is bounded; the optimal convergence rates are also obtained for such a solution. The proofs are obtained by combining spectral analysis with energy methods.
