Large-time asymptotics for general cross-diffusion systems and novel convex Sobolev inequalities
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: The exponential decay of weak solutions towards the constant steady state of general cross-diffusion systems in bounded domains with no-flux boundary conditions is investigated. The proof of quantitative decay rates is based on the relative entropy method and involves two parameters: the exponent determining the entropy density and the exponent in the entropy production integral. The key ingredient are novel convex Sobolev inequalities, which extend existing results in the literature to a broad range of values of the two parameters. These inequalities are established using convexity arguments and the Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality.
