English abstract:
An implicit Euler finite-volume scheme for a cross-diffusion system modeling biofilm growth is analyzed
by exploiting its formal gradient-flow structure. The numerical scheme is based on a two-point flux
approximation that preserves the entropy structure of the continuous model. Assuming equal diffusivities
the existence of non-negative and bounded solutions to the scheme and its convergence are proved.
Finally, we supplement the study by numerical experiments in one and two space dimensions.
