Uniform Hölder Bounds for Competition Systems with Strong Interaction on a Subdomain

Abstract

We prove the uniform Hölder bounds of solutions to a singularly perturbed elliptic system arising in competing models in population dynamics. In this system, two species compete to some extent throughout the whole domain but compete strongly on a subdomain. The proof relies upon the blow up technique and the monotonicity formula by Alt, Caffarelli and Friedman.
