Finite-time blow-up in a class of chemotaxis systems with spatially heterogeneous diffusion sensitivity
Abstract
\indent In this paper, we study a class of parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel systems with diffusion sensitivity dependent on spatial position, given by type \begin{equation} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} u_{t} = \bigtriangledown\cdot(|x|^{\beta} \bigtriangledown u)-\bigtriangledown\cdot(u^{\alpha} \bigtriangledown v), 0=\bigtriangleup v-\mu +u, \qquad \mu:=\frac{1}{|\Omega|}\int_{\Omega}udx,\end{array}\right. \end{equation} under homogeneous Neumann conditions in a ball with , and .\par \indent It is proved that any nonconstant nonnegative radial initial data , where , there exists a radially symmetric classical solution of the system (0.1) in for some ; moreover, if the initial values for some and satisfy a certain compatibility criterion and are radially decreasing, then this solution is bounded and unique in with .\par Finally, it is found that the initial mass corresponding to this parabolic-elliptic problem (0.1) is sufficiently concentrated to allow the solution to blow up in finite time.
