In this work, we present a reduced-order model for nonlinear cross-diffusion problem from population dynamics, the Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto (SKT) equation with Lotka-Volterra kinetics. The finite-difference discretization of SKT in space results system linear--quadratic ordinary differential equations (ODEs). reduced order (ROM) has same linear-quadratic structure as full (FOM). Using ROM, s...
