Abstract

Recently, we have investigated the global existence in time and asymptotic profile of solutions of some nonlinear evolution equations with strong dissipation and proliferation arising in mathematical biology. In this chapter, we improve the asymptotic behaviour of the solution to a simpler equation so that its derivative with respect to t converges exponentially to a constant steady state. We apply our result to a chemotaxis model and show the global existence in time and such exponential convergence property of the solution.
