We study pattern formation in a chemotaxis model of bacteria and soil carbon dynamics as an example system where transient dynamics can give rise to pattern formation outside of Turing unstable regimes. We use a detailed analysis of the…

In this paper, we study the coupled Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system, which models chemotaxis occuring in ambient viscous fluid. We consider this nonlinear, nonlocal system on a periodic strip, equipped with homogeneous Neumann boundary…

This paper investigates a two-dimensional Keller--Segel--Navier--Stokes system with a tensor-valued chemotactic sensitivity $S(x,n,c)$. Under a signal-dependent power-decay condition $|S(x,n,c)| \le s_0 (s_1+c)^{-\gamma}$, we establish the…

We propose a new mechanism for pattern formation based on the global alternation of two dynamics neither of which exhibits patterns. When driven by either one of the separate dynamics, the system goes to a spatially homogeneous state…
