We study the partially hyperbolic diffeomorphims whose center direction admits the u-definite property in the sense that all the central Lyapunov exponents of each ergodic Gibbs u-state are either all positive or all negative. We prove that for this kind of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms, there are finitely many physical measures, whose basins cover a full Lebesgue measure subset of the ambient space.
