We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to a chemotaxis system with indirect signal production presented by Deneubourg (Insectes Sociaux 24: 117–130, 1977):{u_t=\varDelta\; u-χ ∇ ⋅ (u ∇ w)+ 1-μ u &\quad in\varOmega\; * (0, ∞),\qquad\δ\, v_t=-v+ u &\quad in\varOmega\; * (0, ∞),\qquad\τ\, w_t=\varDelta\; w-w+ v &\quad in\varOmega\; * (0, ∞).\qquad\. ut= Δ u-χ∇·(u∇ w)+ 1-μ u in Ω×(0,∞), δ vt=-v+ u in Ω×(0,∞), τ wt= Δ w-w+ v in Ω×(0,∞). Here,\varOmega\; ⊂ R^ 2 Ω⊂ R 2 is a smooth bounded domain with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions imposed on its boundary. The coefficients are all positive constants. The system models the self-organized nest construction process of social insects, specifically, termites. We first show the global-in-time existence of solutions with some smallness conditions for chemotactic intensity χ χ or the initial total mass ‖ u_0 ‖ _ L_1‖ u 0‖ L 1 of worker insects with sufficiently large rest rate μ μ of working. We then define the dynamical system of solutions and construct the global attractor. In addition, for μ/χ μ/χ further large, we also construct a Lyapunov functional for the unique homogeneous equilibrium (1/μ, 1/μ, 1/μ)(1/μ, 1/μ, 1/μ), which indicates that the global attractor consists only of the equilibrium.
