“…Indeed, this choice enable us to establish the required a priori bounds on the solutions of the approximating problem (2.1) in a uniform way with respect to the perturbation parameter > 0. We remark that, if the diffusion is slow and Ω ⊂ R N is a bounded and open domain, then we can allow a superlinear growth in u, v in order to have both global existence solutions and periodic solutions, together with their L ∞ -estimates, see [8], [13], [14], [45], [48], [49], [57], [60], [61], [62], [63] and the references therein. Due to the singularity of the p, q-Laplacian, the way of proving the a priori bounds deeply differs from that employed in [25] and [26].…”
