Abstract
Previous studies of chemotaxis models with consumption of the chemoattractant (with or without fluid) have not been successful in explaining pattern formation even in the simplest form of concentration near the boundary, which had been experimentally observed. Following the suggestions that the main reason for that is the usage of inappropriate boundary conditions, in this paper we study the solutions to the stationary chemotaxis system in bounded domains ω RN, N ≥ 1, under the no-flux boundary conditions for n and the physically meaningful condition vc = (γ-c)g on c, with the given parameter γ > 0 and g ϵ C1+β(ω), Β. ϵ (0, 1), satisfying g ≤ 0, g 0 on δω. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions for any given massn > 0. These solutions are nonconstant.
