Boundedness in a flux-limited chemotaxis-haptotaxis model with nonlinear diffusion (Q6104918)

The authors prove the global-in-time existence and boundedness of solutions for a particular system of chemotaxis with haptotaxis consisting of two parabolic equations and a single ode \(w_t=-vw\), with reaction terms \(u(1-u-w)\), flux limitation and nonlinear diffusion effects considered in bounded domains of \(\mathbb R^n\). Assumptions are imposed on diffusion coefficient \(D\) and chemotactic sensitivity \(\alpha\in(\frac{2-n}{2n},\frac{1}{n})\), \(p\in (1,\frac{n}{2}(1-\alpha))\) where \(D(u)\ge C(u+1)^{-\alpha}\) and \(\nabla\cdot(u|\nabla v|^{p-2}\nabla v)\) is the chemotactic term.
