This paper is concerned with the two-species chemotaxis-Navier–Stokes system with Lotka–Volterra competitive kinetics $$\begin{array}{c}\hfill \left\{\begin{array}{cc}{\left(1\right)}_t+u·1=𝔻1-{\chi }_1·\left(1c\right)+{\mu }_{1}1(1-1-a_{1}2)\hfill & \text{in}\times (0,\infty ),\hfill \\ {\left(2\right)}_t+u·2=𝔻2-{\chi }_2·\left(2c\right)+{\mu }_{2}2(1-a_{2}1-2)\hfill & \text{in}\times (0,\infty ),\hfill \\ c_t+u·c=𝔻c-(\alpha 1+\beta 2)c\hfill & \text{in}\times (0,\infty ),\hfill \\ u_t+(u·)u=𝔻u+\nabla P+(\gamma 1+2)\Phi ,·u=0\hfill & \text{in}\times (0,\infty )\hfill \end{array}\right.\end{array}$$ under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions and initial conditions, where is a bounded domain in R3 with smooth boundary. Recently, in the 2-dimensional setting, global existence and stabilization of classical solutions to the above system were first established. However, the 3-dimensional case has not been studied: Because of difficulties in the Navier–Stokes system, we can...

We consider a one-dimensional semilinear parabolic equation with a gradient nonlinearity. We provide a complete classification of large time behavior of the classical solutions $u$: either the space derivative $u_x$ blows up in finite time (with $u$ itself remaining bounded), or $u$ is global and converges in $C^1$ norm to the unique steady state. The main difficulty is to prove $C^1$ boundedness of all global solutions. To do so, we explicitly compute a nontrivial Lyapunov functional by carrying out the method of...
