Abstract

This paper is concerned with a ratio-dependent predator-prey system with diffusion and cross-diffusion in a bounded domain with no flux boundary condition. We show that under certain hypotheses, the cross-diffusion can create non-constant positive steady states even though the corresponding model without cross-diffusion fails.
