Abstract
We establish global stability for a chemotaxis-growth model with logarithmic sensitivity under dynamic Dirichlet boundary conditions on a 1D domain. We analyze both parabolic-parabolic and parabolic-hyperbolic systems. The key challenge is handling time-dependent boundary data for the unknown functions. We overcome this by introducing dynamic reference profiles which suitably interpolate boundary values. Using an expanded entropy functional measuring deviation from these profiles, we prove energy estimates the uniform boundedness of solutions and global asymptotic stability of perturbations.
