Abstract

In this paper, we will focus on the initial-boundary value problem with no-flux boundary conditions for the three-dimensional cross-diffusion system

$$ \left \{ \begin{aligned} &u_{t}=\Delta u-\chi \nabla \cdot (\frac{u}{v}\nabla v)-uv+B_{1}(x,t),& \qquad x\in \Omega ,\,t>0, \\ &v_{t}=\Delta v+uv-v+B_{2}(x,t), &\qquad x\in \Omega ,\,t>0. \end{aligned} \right . $$

Under some basic assumptions on the functions \(B_{1}\) and \(B_{2}\), we will show that for each \(\chi \in (0,\sqrt{3})\), the system has at least one global renormalized solution in case that each ingredient of the system is radially symmetric with regard to the center of \(\Omega \). Moreover, if \(\chi \in (0,\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2})\), the solution will approach the solution of an elliptic boundary value problem as \(t\rightarrow \infty \) under some extra hypotheses.
