We study a quasilinear parabolic-parabolic chemotaxis system with nonlinear logistic source, under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a smooth bounded domain. By establishing proper a priori estimates we prove that, with both the diffusion function and the chemotaxis sensitivity function being positive, the corresponding initial boundary value problem admits a unique global classical solution which is uniformly bounded. The result of this paper is a generalization of that of Cao (2014).

Euler's pentagonal number theorem was a spectacular achievement at the time of its discovery, and is still considered to be a beautiful result in number theory and combinatorics. In this paper, we obtain three new finite generalizations of Euler's pentagonal number theorem.

In this paper, we consider a two-dimensional inverse medium problem from noisy observation data. We propose effective reconstruction algorithms to detect the number, the location and the size of the piecewise constant medium within a body, and then we try to recover the unknown shape of inhomogeneous media. This problem is nonlinear and ill-posed, thus we should consider stable and elegant approaches in order to improve the corresponding approximation. We give several examples to show the viability...

We prove two supercongruences involving Almkvist-Zudilin sequences, which were originally conjectured by Z.-H. Sun (2020).

We establish two truncations of Gauss’ square exponent theorem and a finite extension of Euler’s identity. For instance, we prove that for any positive integer $n$, $$\sum _{k=0}^n{(-1)}^k\left[\begin{array}{c}2n-k\\ k\end{array}\right]{(q;q^2)}_{n-k}{q}^{\left(\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{k+1}{2}\right)}=\sum _{k=-n}^n{(-1)}^k{q}^{k^2},$$ where $$\left[\begin{array}{c}n\\ m\end{array}\right]=\prod _{k=1}^m\frac{1-q^{n-k+1}}{1-q^k}\text{and}{(a;q)}_n=\prod _{k=0}^{n-1}(1-a{q}^k).$$
