Abstract
We consider a strongly coupled reaction-diffusion system describing three interacting species in a simple food chain structure. Based on the Leray-Schauder degree theory, the existence of non-constant positive steady states is investigated. The results indicate that, when the intrinsic growth rate of the middle species is small, cross-diffusions of the predators versus the preys are helpful to create global coexistence (stationary patterns).
