On a two-species Keller-Segel model with degenerate diffusion and two stimuli

This paper investigates a two-species chemotaxis system with degenerate diffusion in the whole space $\R^d(d \ge 3)$. The diffusion of each species is governed by porous-medium-type operators. Under suitable conditions on the diffusion and aggregation exponents, we establish the global existence of uniformly bounded weak solutions. The proof hinges on a refined energy estimate that exploits the regularizing effect of degenerate diffusion to counteract the chemotactic aggregation. Furthermore, under additional assumptions on the system parameters, we derive exponential convergence rates of the solutions toward the constant steady state. Our results reveal that sufficiently strong degenerate diffusion ensures global boundedness and exponential stabilization in the whole space.
