Parabolic-elliptic chemotaxis model with space-time dependent logistic sources on $\mathbb{R}^N$. II. Existence, uniqueness, and stability of strictly positive entire solutions

Abstract

This work is the second of the series of three papers devoted to the study of asymptotic dynamics in the chemotaxis system with space and time dependent logistic source,$$\partial_tu=\Delta u-\chi\nabla\cdot(u\nabla v)+u(a(x,t)-ub(x,t)),\quad 0=\Delta v-\lambda v+\mu u ,\ x\in\mathbb{R}^N, \ (1) $$where $N\ge1$ is a positive integer, $\chi,\lambda,\mu>0$, and the functions $a(x,t), b(x,t)$ are positive and bounded. In the first of the series, we studied the phenomena of pointwise and uniform persistence, and asymptotic spreading for solutions with compactly supported or front like initials. In the second of the series, we investigate the existence, uniqueness and stability of strictly positive entire solutions. In this direction, we prove that, if $0\le\mu\chi 0$, where $(u_\chi(x,t+t_0;t_0,u_0),v_\chi(x,t+t_0;t_0,u_0))$ denotes the unique classical solution of (1) with $u_\chi(x,t_0;t_0,u_0)=u_0(x)$, for every $0\le\chi<b_\inf$.
