The authors investigate the Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto model of two interacting populations with triangular cross-diffusion and Neumann boundary conditions on an open bounded domain \(\Omega\) in \({\mathbb R}^n\), \(n \geq 3\): \[ \partial u / \partial t = \triangle [(d_1 + \alpha_{11} u + \alpha_{12} v) u] + u (a_1 - b_1 u - c_1 v), \] \[ \partial v / \partial t = \triangle [(d_2 + \alpha_{21} u + \alpha_{22} v) v] + v (a_2 - b_2 u - c_2 v), \] such that \(\alpha_{21}=0\), \(\alpha_{22}>0\). The initial data are nonnegative functions and the authors assume that the solution stays nonnegative. Using semigroup techniques and establishing a priori estimates for various spatial norms of the solutions of a more general system with a certain type of quasilinear operator, they provide sufficient conditions for the existence of a global attractor of the above system with \(n \leq 5\). The paper e.g. extends known results provided by the first author [Indiana Univ. Math. J. 51, 625--643 (2002; Zbl 1046.35061)].
