We study the Keller-Segel model of chemotaxis and develop a composite particle-grid numerical method with adaptive time stepping which allows us to accurately resolve singular solutions. The numerical findings (in two dimensions) are then…
We consider a parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system with spatially dependent diffusion sensitivity \begin{eqnarray*} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} u_t = \nabla \cdot (|x|^\beta \nabla u) - \nabla \cdot (u\nabla v), \\[1mm] 0 = \Delta v - \mu +…
We consider two-dimensional versions of the Keller--Segel model for the chemotaxis with either classical (Brownian) or fractional (anomalous) diffusion. Criteria for blowup of solutions in terms of suitable Morrey spaces norms are derived.…
We develop and analyse a discrete, one-dimensional model of cell motility which incorporates the effects of volume filling, cell-to-cell adhesion and chemotaxis. The formal continuum limit of the model is a nonlinear generalisation of the…
The Keller-Segel partial differential equation is a two-dimensional model for chemotaxis. When the total mass of the initial density is one, it is known to exhibit blow-up in finite time as soon as the sensitivity $\chi$ of bacteria to the…

In this note, we propose a new relative entropy combination of the methods developed by P.--E. Jabin and Z.~Wang [Inventiones (2018)] and by S. Serfaty [Proc. Int. Cong. of Math, (2018) and references therein] to treat more general kernels…
Constant-potential molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are indispensable for understanding the capacitance, structure, and dynamics of electrical double layers (EDLs) at the atomistic level. However, the classical constant-potential method,…
This paper aims to develop numerical approximations of the Keller--Segel equations that mimic at the discrete level the lower bounds and the energy law of the continuous problem. We solve these equations for two unknowns: the organism (or…
Unboundedness of solutions is shown to occur in a one-dimensional quasilinear parabolicparabolic chemotaxis system for any initial mass. Our result is also independent of the relation between the speeds of the diffusion of cells and…
Cluster Dynamical Mean Field Theories are analyzed in terms of their semiclassical limit and their causality properties, and a translation invariant formulation of the cellular dynamical mean field theory, PCDMFT, is presented. The…
We present a discrete model of chemotaxis whereby cells responding to a chemoattractant are seen as individual agents whose movement is described through a set of rules that result in a biased random walk. In order to take into account…
We derive rates of convergence for limit theorems that reveal the intricate structure of the phase transitions in a mean-field version of the Blume-Emery-Griffith model. The theorems consist of scaling limits for the total spin. The model…
We consider first-order conservative systems of particles with binary Coulomb interactions in the mean-field scaling regime in dimensions $d\geq 3$. We show that if at some time, the associated sequence of empirical measures converges in a…
We have mapped the physics of polymer melts onto a time-dependent Landau-Ginzburg $|\psi|^4$ field theory using techniques of functional integration. Time in the theory is simply a label for the location of a given monomer along the extent…
It is known that in two dimensions the classical Keller-Segel model can lead to cell aggregation. This behavior can be controlled by adding a logistic growth term with quadratic decay. Researchers have tried to find weaker damping…
