NEW RESULTSOPEN PROBLEMS

Goal of the talk

Survey on global existence in time of solutions toreaction-diffusion systems (RDS) for which :• positivity is preserved ;• conservation or at least dissipation of the total mass.

This provides an a priori bound in L1, uniform in time.

QUESTION : how does this help for global existence ? ? ?

The Chemical Basis of Morphogenesis By A. M. Turing,University of Manchester In Phil. Trans. Royal Soc.London, 1952

Abstract : ”It is suggested that a system of chemicalsubstances, called morphogens, reacting together and diffusingthrough a tissue, is adequate to account for the mainphenomena of morphogenesis. Such a system, although it mayoriginally be quite homogeneous, may later develop a patternor structure due to an instability of the homogeneousequilibrium, which is triggered of by random disturbances...”

By maximum principle for the heat equation :

∀t ∈ (0,T ∗), ‖u(t, .) + v(t, .)‖L∞(Ω) ≤ ‖u0 + v0‖L∞(Ω).

Stationnary Systems by EHL-Pierre (1)

Approximating by stationnary reaction-diffusion systems.• Recall that the implicit time-discetrisation of

∂tui − di∆uβii = fi (u1, u2, · · · , um), i = 1, · · · ,m.

is given , for h : tn+1 − tn, by

ui (tn+1)− hdi∆(ui (tn+1))βi = h[fi (u(tn+1)] + ui (tn).

• This yields to the question of existence for stationnaryreaction-diffusion systems of type :

i = 1, · · · ,mui − δi∆uβii = Fi (u1, u2, · · · , um) + gi

with nonlinearities Fi satisfying (P), (M) or (M’) and variousboundary conditions.

1) Going back to the initial system with nonlinear diffusion

What’s happen if max1≤i≤m

βi ≥ 2 ?

2) If we have ∆pi (ui ) = div(|∇ui |pi−2|∇ui |) instead ∆x(ui )βi ?

3) What’s happen if the diffusion are driven by operators offractional type ?

4) Once we have proved global existence of weak solutions for asystem, it remains interesting to decide whether it is unformlybounded (and therefore classical) or not. Let us for instance thecombustion model

∂tu − d1∆u = −uα ev2

∂tv − d2∆v = uα ev2.

Note that, as proved by Rebiai-Benachour, L∞-bounds hold for theslightly better system

f (u, v) = −uα(1 + v2)ev2, g(u, v) = uα ev

5) How far is it possible to extend the results recalled in this talkto situations where the nonlinearities depend also on the gradientof the solutions, like they do in several models ? A 2× 2 modelwould be of the form

∂tu − d1∆u = f (u, v ,∇u,∇v)∂tv − d2∆v = g(u, v ,∇u,∇v),

together with conditions of the kind f + g ≤ 0. All questions aboutglobal existence of classical, or of weak solutions, are of interest.

6) How do the known techniques extend to cross-diffusions, namely∂tu − d1∆u −∇ · (a1(u, v)∇u + a2(u, v)∇v) = f (u, v) on QT

∂tv − d2∆v −∇ · (b1(u, v)∇u + b2(u, v)∇v) = g(u, v) on QT ?

More and more pertinent models require these cross-diffusions.Conditions are required to preserve positivity. Next, globalexistence remains a natural question.

7) Instead of having an L1-structure of type (M), a f + b g ≤ 0with a, b > 0, there are systems for which a more generalLyapunov structure holds like

h′1(u)f (u, v) + h′2(v)g(u, v) ≤ 0,

where h1, h2 : [0,+∞)→ [0,+∞) satisfy limr→∞

hi (r) = +∞. Global

existence would still hold for the associated O.D.E. But, whatabout the P.D.E. system, even for convex hi ? Some results may bededuced directly from the remark that, due to the convexity of thehi , h(u) = (h1(u1), .., hm(um)) is a subsolution of a systemsatisfying (P)+(M).
