This work studies the chemotaxis-haptotaxis system $$\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} u_t= \Delta u - \chi \nabla \cdot (u\nabla v) - \xi \nabla \cdot (u\nabla w) + \mu u(1-u-w), &\qquad x\in \Omega, \, t>0, \\[1mm] v_t=\Delta v-v+u, &\qquad x\in \Omega, \, t>0, \\[1mm] w_t=-vw, &\qquad x\in \Omega, \, t>0, \end{array} \right. $$ in a bounded smooth domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ with zero-flux boundary conditions, where the parameters $\chi, \xi$ and $\mu$ are assumed to be positive. It is shown that under appropriate regularity assumption on the initial data $(u_0, v_0, w_0)$, the corresponding initial-boundary problem possesses a unique classical solution which is global in time and bounded. In addition to coupled estimate techniques, a novel ingredient in the proof is to establish a one-sided pointwise estimate, which connects $\Delta w$ to $v$ and thereby enables us to derive useful energy-type inequalities that bypass $w$. However, we note that the approach developed in this paper seems to be confined to the two-dimensional setting.

- Global classical solution and boundedness to a chemotaxis‐haptotaxis model with re‐establishment mechanisms (2018, methodology): “[1, 16, 17] obtained the existence of global solution for the 1D, 2D and 3D space respectively, especially, for the 3D space, similar to the chemotaxis-only system, the global solution is obtained only for large μ χ , and it remains open for small μ χ .”
