This paper deals with the boundedness of solutions to the following quasilinear chemotaxis-haptotaxis model of parabolic-parabolic-ODE type: ⎧ ⎪ ⎨ ⎪ ⎩ u t = ∇ • (D(u)∇u)-χ ∇ • (u∇v)-ξ ∇ • (u∇w) + μu(1-u r-1-w), x ∈ Ω, t > 0, v t = v-v + u η , x ∈ Ω, t > 0, w t =-vw, x ∈ Ω, t > 0, under zero-flux boundary conditions in a smooth bounded domain Ω ⊂ R n (n ≥ 2), with parameters r ≥ 2, η ∈ (0, 1] and the parameters χ > 0, ξ > 0, μ > 0. The diffusivity D(u) is assumed to satisfy D(u) ≥ δu-α , D(0) > 0 for all u > 0 with some α ∈ R and δ > 0. It is proved that if α < n+2-2nη 2+n , then, for sufficiently smooth initial data (u 0 , v 0 , w 0), the corresponding initial-boundary problem possesses a unique global-in-time classical solution which is uniformly bounded.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
