Descrição

We consider a fully parabolic model for chemotaxis with volume-filling effect and a nonlinear diffusion that degenerates in a two-sided fashion. We address the questions of existence of weak solutions and of their regularity by using, respectively, a regularization method and the technique of intrinsic scaling.
