Abstract An implicit Euler finite-volume scheme for a cross-diffusion system modeling biofilm growth is analyzed by exploiting its formal gradient-flow structure. The numerical scheme is based on a two-point flux approximation that preserves the entropy structure of the continuous model. Assuming equal diffusivities the existence of non-negative and bounded solutions to the scheme and its convergence are proved. Finally, we supplement the study by numerical experiments in one and two space dimensions.

Abstract In this work we present the convergence of a positivity preserving semi-discrete finite volume scheme for a coupled system of two non-local partial differential equations with cross-diffusion. The key to proving the convergence result is to establish positivity in order to obtain a discrete energy estimate to obtain compactness. We numerically observe the convergence to reference solutions with a first order accuracy in space. Moreover we recover segregated stationary states in spite of the regularising effect of the self-diffusion. However, if the self-diffusion or the cross-diffusion is strong enough, mixing occurs while both densities remain continuous.
