Abstract

This paper estimates from below the attractor dimension of the dynamical system determined from a chemotaxis growth model which was presented by Mimura and Tsujikawa. It is already known that the dynamical system has exponential attractors and it is also known by numerical computations that the model contains various pattern solutions. This paper is then devoted to estimating the attractor dimension from below and in fact to showing that, as the parameter of chemotaxis increases and tends to infinity, so does the attractor dimension. Such a result is in a good correlation with the numerical results.
