A Holling type III predator-prey model with self- and cross-population pressure is considered. Using the energy estimate and Gagliardo-Nirenberg-type inequalities, the existence and uniform boundedness of global solutions to the model are dicussed. In addition, global asymptotic stability of the positive equilibrium point for the model is proved by Lyapunov function.

1. Introduction
This paper is a continuation of Part I1. In Section 3 of Part I, using the energy estimate and bootstrap arguments, the global existence of solutions for a Holling type III cross-diffusion predator-prey model with stage-structure has been discussed when the space dimension be less than 6. However, to obtain theL∞ estimate for the population densityw of predator species, there is not cross-diffusion forwin Part I.
All diffusive predator-prey systems behave, more or less, in the same way, for both semilinear and cross-diffusive models, at least for small values of the cross diffusivities. Consequently, all the available information for linear diffusive models is essential to realize the behavior of the most complicated cross-diffusive systems2–17.
In this paper, we consider the following cross-diffusion system:

2−cu3− u2w 1u2,

1.1
whered, d3, αiji, j 1,2,3, α, β, γ, a, b, c,andkare positive constants. Also,d, d3are linear diffusion coefficients ofu, v, w, respectively, whileαiii1,2,3are referred as self-diffusion
pressures, andαiji /j, i, j 1,2,3are cross-diffusion pressures. Ifα12 α21 α23 α31 α320, then1.1reduces to the system1.4of Part I.
Recently, the work in 18–20 studied the existence, uniform boundedness, and uniform convergence of global solutions for the Lotka-Volterra cross-diffusion models without stage-structure in the case that the space dimension n 1. In this paper, we consider mainly the existence and uniform boundedness of global solutions for the model
1.1 with nonlinear density restriction and stage-structure. Moreover, global asymptotic stability of the positive equilibrium point for 1.1 is proved by an important lemma of 21. The proof is complete and complement the uniform convergence theorem in
18–20.
2. Global Existence and Uniform Boundedness
For simplicity, denote | · |k,p · Wk
p0,1,| · |p · Lp0,1. The local existence result of
solutions to 1.1 is an immediate consequence of a series of papers 22,23 by Amann. Roughly speaking, if u0, v0, w0 ∈ Wp10,1, p > 1, then 1.1 has a unique nonnegative
solutionu, v, w ∈ C0, T, W1
p0,1
C∞0, T, C∞0,1, where T ≤ ∞ is the maximal existence time for the solution. Ifu, v, wsatisfies
sup|u·, t|1,p,|v·, t|1,p,|w·, t|1,p : 0< t < T<∞, 2.1
thenT ∞. If, in addition,u0, v0, w0∈Wp20,1, thenu, v, w∈C0,∞, Wp20,1.
The main result in this section is as follows.
Theorem 2.1. Letu0, v0, w0 ∈W220,1,u, v, wis the unique nonnegative solution of 1.1in its maximal existence interval0, T. Assume that
8α11α21α31> α21α213α212α31,
8α12α22α32> α32α221α223α12,
8α13α23α33> α23α231α232α13.
Then there existst0 > 0 and positive constantsM, M which depend ond, d3, αiji, j 1,2,3,
β, a, b, c, k, γ, α, such that
sup|u·, t|1,2,|v·, t|1,2,|w·, t|1,2:t∈t0, T
≤M, 2.3
max{ux, t, vx, t, wx, t: 0≤x≤1, t0≤t < T} ≤M, 2.4
andT ∞. In particular, ifd, d3 ≥ 1, d3/d ∈d, d, whered ≤1anddare positive constants, thenM, Mdepend ond, d, but do not depend ond, d3 ≥1.
The following Gagliardo-Nirenberg-type inequalities and corresponding corollary play an importance role in the proof ofTheorem 2.1.
Theorem 2.2see18. LetΩ ⊂ Rn be a bounded domain with ∂Ω ∈ Cm. For every function
u∈Wm
r Ω, 1≤q, r≤ ∞, the derivativeDju0≤j < msatisfies the inequality
Dju p≤C
|Dmu|ar|u|q1−a|u|q, 2.5
provided one of the following three conditions is satisfied:1r ≤q,20 < nr −q/mrq < 1, or
3nr−q/mrq1, andm−n/qis not a nonnegative integer, where1/pj/na1/r−m/n 1−a/q, for alla∈j/m,1, and the positive constantCdepends onn, m, j, q, r, a.
Corollary 2.3. There exists a positive constantCsuch that
|u|2≤C|ux|21/3|u|21/3|u|1
, ∀u∈W210,1, 2.6
|u|4≤C|ux|21/2|u|11/2|u|1

For simplicity, denote thatCis Sobolev embedding constant or other kind of absolute constant.
Aj, Bj, Cj are some positive constants which depend onαiji, j 1,2,3,β, a, b, c, k, γ, α. Also,Kj
are positive constants which depend onαiji, j1,2,3,β, a, b, c, k, γ, α, d, d3. Whend, d3 ≥1,Kj
do not depend ond, d3, but ond, d.

whereM0 2C1aβ/amax{aβ−1,1}.

Moreover, there exists a positive constantM1 which depends onβ, a, b, c, k, γ, αand theL1 -norm ofu0, v0, w0, such that

Thus, there exists positive constantsτ2 > τ1andM2depending ond, d3, β, a, b, c, k, γ, α, such that

Since the zero point of the right-hand side in2.21can be estimated by positive constants independent ofd, whend≥1. ThusM2do not depend ond≥1.

Similarly, according to2.15,2.22,2.39, we can see that there exists a positive constantM depending on d, d3, αiji, j 1,2,3,β, a, b, c, k, γ,α and the initial functions

Whend, d3 ≥1,η∈d, d,Mis dependent ofd,d, but independent ofd, d3. ThusT ∞. This completes proof ofTheorem 2.1.

From the maximum-norm estimate in Theorem 2.1,3.2 is a sufficient condition of3.5. Thus when3.1holds, there exists a positive constantδsuch that
dHu, v, w dt ≤ −δ

0
By integration by parts, H ¨older inequality and the maximum-norm estimate in
Theorem 2.1, we can see thatd/dt10u−u∗2 v−v∗2 w−w∗2dxis bounded from above. According to Lemma 3.1 in1and3.6, we obtain
|u·, t−u∗|2−→0, |v·, t−v∗|2−→0, |w·, t−w∗|2−→0, t−→ ∞. 3.7
Using Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities, we have|u·, t|∞≤C|u|11,/22|u|12/2. Thus
|u·, t−u∗|∞−→0, |v·, t−v∗|∞−→0, |w·, t−w∗|∞−→0, t−→ ∞. 3.8
That is,u, v, wconverges uniformly to E∗. SinceHu, v, wis decreasing fort > 0, E∗ is globally asymptotically stable.
