When do Keller-Segel systems with heterogeneous logistic sources admit generalized solutions?
Abstract
We construct global generalized solutions to the chemotaxis system \begin{align*} \begin{cases} u_t = \Delta u - \nabla \cdot (u \nabla v) + \lambda(x) u - \mu(x) u^\kappa,\\ v_t = \Delta v - v + u \end{cases} \end{align*} in smooth, bounded domains , , for certain choices of and . Here, inter alia, the selections with and as well as and are admissible (in both cases for any sufficiently smooth ). While the former case appears to be novel in general, in the two- and three-dimensional setting, the latter improves on a recent result by Winkler (Adv. Nonlinear Anal. 9 (2019), no. 1, 526-566), where the condition has been imposed. In particular, for , our result shows that taking any suffices to exclude the possibility of collapse into a persistent Dirac distribution.
