Proving the uniqueness of solutions to multi-species cross-diffusion systems is a difficult task in the general case, and there exist very few results in this direction. In this work, we study a particular system with zero-flux boundary conditions for which the existence of a weak solution has been proven in [Ehrlacher2017]. Under additional assumptions on the value of the cross-diffusion coefficients, we are able to show the existence and uniqueness of strong solutions. The proof relies on the use of an appropriate approximation and a fixed-point argument. In addition, a weak-strong stability result is obtained for this system in dimension one.
