Abstract

This paper studies the following system of differential equations modeling tumor angiogenesis in a bounded smooth domain Ω⊂ ℝN (N=1,2): \pt=Δp-∇\cdotp p(\frac α1+c∇ c+ρ∇ w)+λp(1-p), · amp; x∈ Ω, t · gt;0, ct=Δc-c-μpc, · amp;x∈ Ω, t · gt;0,
wt= γp(1-w), · amp; x∈ Ω, t · gt;0,. where α, ρ, λ, μ and γ are positive parameters. For any reasonably regular initial data (p0, c0, w0), we prove the global boundedness (L^∞-norm) of p via an iterative method. Furthermore, we investigate the long-time behavior of solutions to the above system under an additional mild condition, and improve previously known results. In particular, in the one-dimensional case, we show that the solution (p,c,w) converges to (1,0,1) with an explicit exponential rate as time tends to infinity.
