Abstract: For cross-diffusion systems possessing an entropy (i.e. a Lyapunov functional)we study nonlocal versions and exhibit sufficient conditions to ensure that thenonlocal version inherits the entropy structure. These nonlocal systems can beunderstood as population models per se or as approximation of the classical ones.With the preserved entropy, we can rigorously link the approximating nonlocalversion to the classical local system. From a modelling perspective this gives away to prove a derivation of the model and from a PDE perspective this providesa regularisation scheme to prove the existence of solutions. A guiding example isthe SKT model [22]. In this context we answer positively the question raised byFontbona and M{'e}l{'e}ard [12] for the derivation and thus complete the derivation.
