Asymptotical dynamics of Selkov equations

Abstract

The existence of a global attractor for the solution semiflow of Selkov equations with Neumann boundary conditions on a bounded domain in space dimension $n\le 3$ is proved. This reaction-diffusion system features the oppositely-signed nonlinear terms so that the dissipative sign-condition is not satisfied. The asymptotical compactness is shown by a new decomposition method. It is also proved that the Hausdorff dimension and fractal dimension of the global attractor are finite.
