Summary: We consider a quasi-linear parabolic system with respect to unknown functions \(u\) and \(v\) on a bounded domain of \(n\)-dimensional Euclidean space. We assume that the diffusion coefficient of \(u\) is a positive smooth function \(A(u)\), and that the diffusion coefficient of \(v\) is a positive constant. If \(A(u)\) is a positive constant, the system is referred to as so-called Keller-Segel system. In the case where the domain is a bounded domain of two-dimensional Euclidean space, it is shown that some solutions to Keller-Segel system blow up in finite time. In three and more dimensional cases, it is shown that solutions to so-called Nagai system blow up in finite time. The diffusion coefficients of Nagai system are positive constants. In this paper, we describe that solutions to the quasi-linear parabolic system exist globally in time, if the positive function \(A(u)\) rapidly increases with respect to \(u\).
