Review text

This paper considers the cross-diffusion system: \[ \begin{cases} u_t=\nabla \cdot((u+1)^{m-1}\nabla u)-\nabla \cdot \left(\frac{u \nabla v}{(1+|\nabla v|^2)^\alpha}\right), & x \in \Omega, \, t>0,\\ 0=\Delta v-v+u, & x \in \Omega, \, t>0, \end{cases} \] in a bounded domain \(\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}, n\geq 2 \) with smooth boundary. \indent The main contribution of this paper is to identify that the initial-boundary value problem of the cross-diffusion system exists a unique global bounded classical solution under the condition that \(\alpha>\frac{2n-2-mn}{2(n-1)}\) and \(m\geq1\). Meanwhile, the author proved the solution exponentially converges to the constant stationary solution \((\bar{u}_0, \bar{u}_0)\) when the initial data \(u_0\) is sufficiently small and \(\bar{u}_0:=\frac{\int_\Omega u_0}{|\Omega|}\). The proof of the theorem is delicate and seem to be right. This paper improves the result of \textit{M. Winkler}, [``A critical blow-up exponent for flux limitation in a Keller-Segel system, Preprint, \url{arXiv:2010.01553}] on the global existence of solutions to the system by separating the cross-diffusion term into two parts. This is a great work. The paper is well organized with a complete list of relevant references. The presentation of the paper is very clear. No typos was detected. I think it is a good paper. However, the condition of \(\alpha\) may be well improved. This will arouse more interest to relevant researchers to study the above system extensively.
