Abstract
We establish the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to the parabolic system with nonstandard growth condition and cross diffusion, ∂tu - div α(x, t, ∇u)) = div |F|p(x,t)-2 F), ∂tv - div α(x, t, ∇v)) = δ∆u, where δ ≥ 0 and ∂tu, ∂tv denote the partial derivative of u and v with respect to the time variable t, while ∇u and ∇v denote the one with respect to the spatial variable x. Moreover, the vector field α(x, t, ‧) satisfies certain nonstandard p(x, t) growth, monotonicity and coercivity conditions.
