Abstract

We consider a two-species chemotaxis model in Rd(d3)\R^d(d \ge 3) featuring nonlinear porous medium-type diffusion and nonlocal attractive power-law interaction. Here, the nonlinear diffusion is chosen to be 1/m1+1/m2=(d+2)/d1/m_1+1/m_2=(d+2)/d in such a way that the associated free energy is conformal invariant, and there are radially symmetric, non-increasing and non-compactly supported stationary solutions (Us(x),Vs(x))(U_s(x),V_s(x)). We analyze the conditions on initial data (u0,v0)(u_0,v_0) under which attractive forces dominate over diffusion, and further classify the global existence and finite time blow-up of dynamical solutions by virtue of these stationary solutions. Specifically, the solution (u,v)(x,t)(u,v)(x,t) exists globally in time if the initial data satisfy u0Lm1(Rd)<UsLm1(Rd)\|u_0\|_{L^{m_1}(\R^d)}<\|U_s\|_{L^{m_1}(\R^d)} and v0Lm2(Rd)<VsLm2(Rd)\|v_0\|_{L^{m_2}(\R^d)}<\|V_s\|_{L^{m_2}(\R^d)}. In contrast, there are blowing-up solutions when u0Lm1(Rd)>UsLm1(Rd)\|u_0\|_{L^{m_1}(\R^d)}>\|U_s\|_{L^{m_1}(\R^d)} and v0Lm2(Rd)>VsLm2(Rd)\|v_0\|_{L^{m_2}(\R^d)}>\|V_s\|_{L^{m_2}(\R^d)}.
