A finite volume scheme for the local sensing chemotaxis model (2412.13143v1)

Published 17 Dec 2024 in math.NA and cs.NA

Abstract: In this paper we design, analyze and simulate a finite volume scheme for a cross-diffusion system which models chemotaxis with local sensing. This system has the same gradient flow structure as the celebrated minimal Keller-Segel system, but unlike the latter, its solutions are known to exist globally in 2D. The long-time behavior of solutions is only partially understood which motivates numerical exploration with a reliable numerical method. We propose a linearly implicit, two-point flux finite volume approximation of the system. We show that the scheme preserves, at the discrete level, the main features of the continuous system, namely mass, non-negativity of solution, entropy, and duality estimates. These properties allow us to prove the well-posedness, unconditional stability and convergence of the scheme. We also show rigorously that the scheme possesses an asymptotic preserving (AP) property in the quasi-stationary limit. We complement our analysis with thorough numerical experiments investigating convergence and AP properties of the scheme as well as its reliability with respect to stability properties of steady solutions.
