Nonlocal Diffusion Elliptic System Modelling The Behaviour Of a Bacteria And a Living Nutrient

Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the existence and uniqueness of coexistence states for a class of non-local elliptic system. This problem models the behaviour of a bacteria and a living nutrient, whose diffusion depends on the population of the bacteria in a non-local and nonlinear way. Mainly, we employ bifurcation methods and the Implicit Function Theorem to obtain the existence and uniqueness of positive solution.Comment: 15 pages and 2 figure
