摘要

This paper investigates a cross-diffusion epidemic system in a bounded domain with no-flux boundary conditions. The local and global stability of the positive equilibrium is analyzed for this system without cross-diffusion. Sufficient conditions for the existence and nonexistence of non-constant positive steady states are derived for the cross-diffusion epidemic system, indicating whether pattern formation can occur. The results show that when the self-pressure is strong and the tendency to avoid infection is weak, non-constant positive steady states do not exist. These cases are critical in determining disease persistence. However, non-constant positive steady states arise extensively when the cross-diffusion coefficient for the removed individuals is sufficiently large and the self-diffusion coefficients d i ( i = 1 , 2 ) $d_{i}(i=1,2)$ are relatively small under certain other conditions.
