Abstract:
In this work we analyze the effects of prey-taxis on the existence of global-in-time solutions and dynamics of an eco-epidemiological model. In particular, we consider the influence of slow dispersal characterized by the $p$-Laplacian operator, and enhanced mortality of the infected prey. Our results have large scale applications to biological invasions and biological control of pests.
