Abstract

This paper deals with the problem of global solvability and boundedness of classical solutions to a fully parabolic chemotaxis system with singular sensitivity in any dimensional setting. In particular, We show that the system \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} u_t = \Delta u - \chi \nabla \cdot \left( \dfrac{u}{v} \nabla v \right), \\ v_t = \Delta v - v + u, \end{cases} \end{equation*} posed in a bounded domain ΩRn\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n with n3n \geq 3, admits a global bounded classical solution provided that χ(0,χ0)\chi \in (0,\chi_0) with χ0>2n\chi_0 > \sqrt{\frac{2}{n}} can be determined explicitly. This result extends several existing works, which established global boundedness under the more restrictive condition χ<2n\chi < \sqrt{\frac{2}{n}}, and shows that this threshold is not an optimal upper bound for preventing blow-up.
