Numerical analysis of a three-species chemotaxis model (Q2192547)

The authors consider a chemotaxis system with reaction terms describing evolution of three species: a prey, a predator and a super-predator, coupled with three elliptic equations for diffusion of chemicals. A finite volume numerical scheme is proposed, and convergence of approximating solutions is shown. Discrete Sobolev type embedding inequalities and a space-time \(L^1\) type compactness argument are used.
