We introduce stochastic models of chemotaxis generalizing the deterministic Keller-Segel model. These models include fluctuations which are important in systems with small particle numbers or close to a critical point. Following Dean's…

Collective motion of chemotactic bacteria as E. Coli relies, at the individual level, on a continuous reorientation by runs and tumbles. It has been established that the length of run is decided by a stiff response to a temporal sensingof…

The Cauchy problem for the parabolic--elliptic Keller--Segel system in the whole $n$-dimensional space is studied. For this model, every constant $A \in \mathbb{R}$ is a stationary solution. The main goal of this work is to show that $A <…
