A reaction-diffusion system modeling the cardiac electric field
 
 
Description:  We are concerned with a degenerate system of nonlinear partial differential equations modeling the cardiac electric field at macroscopic level. First, the existence of weak solutions is proved via non degenerate approximation system, Faedo-Galerkin, monotonicity and compactness methods. Second, we prove the existence of a weak solution by demonstrating that the finite volume scheme is convergent and that any limit function satisfies the definition of weak solution. The convergence proof is based on deriving a series of a priori estimates and using a general $L^p$ compactness.
