Abstract. Let \(\Omega\) be a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^{n}\) (\(n\geq 2\)) with a smooth boundary \(\partial \Omega\). We discuss in this paper the existence and the asymptotic behavior of positive solutions of the following semilinear elliptic system \[\begin{aligned} -\Delta u&=a_{1}(x)u^{\alpha}v^{r}\quad\text{in}\;\Omega ,\;\;\,u|_{\partial\Omega}=0,\\ -\Delta v&=a_{2}(x)v^{\beta}u^{s}\quad\text{in}\;\Omega ,\;\;\,v|_{\partial\Omega }=0.\end{aligned}\] Here \(r,s\in \mathbb{R}\), \(\alpha,\beta \lt 1\) such that \(\gamma :=(1-\alpha)(1-\beta)-rs\gt 0\) and the functions \(a_{i}\) (\(i=1,2\)) are nonnegative and satisfy some appropriate conditions with reference to Karamata regular variation theory.

Keywords: semilinear elliptic system, asymptotic behavior, Karamata class, sub-super solution.
