In this paper, we shall study the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system on the Poincar{\'e} disk model of the 2D-hyperbolic space. We shall investigate how the negative curvature of this Riemannian manifold influences the solutions of this…

Uncovering the quantitative laws that govern the growth and division of single cells remains a major challenge. Using a unique combination of technologies that yields unprecedented statistical precision, we find that the sizes of individual…

In this paper we consider a stochastic Keller-Segel type equation, perturbed with random noise. We establish that for special types of random pertubations (i.e. in a divergence form), the equation has a global weak solution for small…

We establish new convergence results, in strong topologies, for solutions of the parabolic-parabolic Keller--Segel system in the plane, to the corresponding solutions of the parabolic-elliptic model, as a physical parameter goes to zero.…

We construct axisymmetric solutions to the three-dimensional parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system that blows up in finite time. In particular, the singularity is of type II, which admits locally a leading order profile of the rescaled…

We obtain an upper bound on the heat kernel of the Keller-Segel finite particle system that exhibits blow up effects. The proof exploits a connection between Keller-Segel finite particles and certain non-local operators. The latter allows…

We show that solutions to the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system on ${\mathbb S}^1$ with critical fractional diffusion $(-\Delta)^\frac{1}{2}$ remain smooth for any initial data and any positive time. This disproves, at least in the…
