Abstract
We study the chemotaxis-(Navier–)Stokes system modeling coral fertilization: \(n_t+u\cdot \nabla n=\Delta n-\nabla \cdot (nS(x,n,c)\nabla c)-nm\), \(c_t+u\cdot \nabla c=\Delta c-c+m\), \(m_t+u\cdot \nabla m=\Delta m-nm\), \(u_t+\kappa (u\cdot \nabla )u+\nabla P=\Delta u+(n+m)\nabla \phi \) and \(\nabla \cdot u=0\) in a bounded and smooth domain \(\Omega \subset \mathbb {R}^2\), where \(\kappa \in \mathbb {R}\), \(\phi \in W^{2,\infty }(\Omega )\), and \(S\in C^2({\bar{\Omega }}\times [0,\infty )^2;\mathbb {R}^{2\times 2})\) satisfies \(|S(x,n,c)|\le S_0(c)(1+n)^{-\alpha }\) for all \((x,n,c)\in {\bar{\Omega }}\times [0,\infty )^2\) with \(\alpha \in \mathbb {R}\) and the function \(S_0:[0,\infty )\rightarrow [0,\infty )\) nondecreasing. Under the relatively weak destabilizing action of cross-diffusion for \(\alpha \ge 0\), the global boundedness of classical solutions was obtained in Espejo and Winkler (Nonlinearity 31:1227–1259, 2018) and Li (Differ Equ 267:6290–6315, 2019). In this paper, we show that even if n|S| with \(-\frac{1}{2}<\alpha <0\) bears a superlinear growth of n, the corresponding initial-boundary value problem (with any \(\kappa \in \mathbb {R}\)) still possesses a global classical solution emanating from any suitably smooth initial data. Moreover, when \(\kappa =0\), this solution is globally bounded.
