Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the quasilinear Keller-Segel equations (q-K-S):\[\left\{\begin{split}&n_t=\nabla\cdot\big(D(n)\nabla n\big)-\nabla\cdot\big(\chi(n)\nabla c\big)+\mathcal{R}(n), \qquad x\in\Omega,\,t>0,\\&\varrho c_t=\Delta c-c+n, \qquad x\in\Omega,\,t>0,\end{split}\right.\]under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$. For both $\varrho=0$ (parabolic-elliptic case) and $\varrho>0$ (parabolic-parabolic case), we will show the global-in-time existence and uniform-in-time boundedness of solutions to equations (q-K-S) with both non-degenerate and degenerate diffusions on the non-convex domain $\Omega$, which provide a supplement to the dichotomy boundedness vs. blow-up in parabolic-elliptic/parabolic-parabolic chemotaxis equations with degenerate diffusion, nonlinear sensitivity and logistic source. In particular, we improve the recent results obtained by Wang-Li-Mu (2014, Disc. Cont. Dyn. Syst.) and Wang-Mu-Zheng (2014, J. Differential Equations).
