A cross-diffusion system obtained via (convex) relaxation in the JKO scheme
Résumé
In this paper, we start from a very natural system of cross-diffusion equations which, unfortunately, is not well-posed as it is the gradient flow for the Wasserstein distance of a functional which is not lower semi-continuous due to lack of convexity of the integral. We then compute the convexification of the integral and prove existence of a solution in a suitable sense for the gradient flow of the corresponding relaxed functional. This gradient flow has also a cross-diffusion structure but the mixture between two different regimes which are determined by the convexification makes this study non-trivial.
