We investigate nonlinear dynamics near an unstable constant equilibrium in the classical Keller-Segel model. Given any general perturbation of magnitude $\delta$, we prove that its nonlinear evolution is dominated by the corresponding…
Motivated by bacterial chemotaxis and multi-species ecological interactions in heterogeneous environments, we study a general one-dimensional reaction-cross-diffusion system in the presence of spatial heterogeneity in both transport and…
Populations can become spatially organised through chemotaxis autoattraction, wherein population members release their own chemoattractant. Standard models of this process usually assume phenotypic homogeneity, but recent studies have shed…
We investigate the point spectrum associated with travelling wave solutions in a Keller-Segel model for bacterial chemotaxis with small diffusivity of the chemoattractant, a logarithmic chemosensitivity function and a constant, sublinear or…
This paper deals with the homogeneous Neumann boundary-value problem for the Keller--Segel system \begin{align*} \begin{cases} u_t=\Delta u - \chi \nabla \cdot (u|\nabla v|^{p-2}\nabla v),\\[] v_t=\Delta v - v + u^{\theta} \end{cases}…
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…
A novel trait-structured Keller-Segel model that explores the dynamics of a migrating cell population guided by chemotaxis in response to an external ligand concentration is derived and analysed. Unlike traditional Keller-Segel models, this…
In this paper, we focus on the Keller-Segel chemotaxis system in a random heterogeneous domain. We assume that the corresponding diffusion and chemotaxis coefficients are given by stationary ergodic random fields and apply stochastic…
In this paper, We study an one--dimensional morphogenesis model considered by C. Stinner et al. in (Math. Meth. Appl. Sci. 2012,35 (445-465). Under homogeneous boundary conditions, we prove the existence of nonconstant positive steady…
We construct solutions to the two dimensional parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel model for chemotaxis that blow up in finite time $T$. The solution is decomposed as the sum of a stationary state concentrated at scale $\lambda$ and of a…
We study a two-dimensional free boundary problem that models motility of eukaryotic cells on substrates. This problem consists of an elliptic equation describing the flow of cytoskeleton gel coupled with a convection-diffusion PDE for the…
The paper is concerned with the following chemotaxis system with nonlinear motility functions \begin{equation}\label{0-1}\tag{$\ast$} \begin{cases} u_t=\nabla \cdot (\gamma(v)\nabla u- u\chi(v)\nabla v)+\mu u(1-u), &x\in \Omega, ~~t>0,…
In this paper we present a Keller--Segel model with logistic growth dynamics arising in the study of chemotactic pattern formation. We prove the existence of a minimum wave speed for which the model exhibits nonnegative travelling wave…
This paper is concerned with the boundary-layer solutions of the singular Keller-Segel model proposed by Keller-Segel (1971) in a multi-dimensional domain, where the zero-flux boundary condition is imposed to the cell while inhomogeneous…
In this paper we consider the initial Neumann boundary value problem for a degenerate Keller--Segel model which features a signal-dependent non-increasing motility function. The main obstacle of analysis comes from the possible degeneracy…
Chemotaxis phenomena govern the directed movement of micro-organisms in response to chemical stimuli. In this paper, we investigate two Keller--Segel systems of reaction-advection-diffusion equations modeling chemotaxis on thin networks.…
In this article we study the stabilizing of a primitive pattern of behaviour for the two-species community with chemotaxis due to the short-wavelength external signal. We use a system of Patlak-Keller-Segel type as a model of the community.…
In this paper, we investigate the long-time dynamics of a repulsive Keller-Segel chemotaxis system. The model features negative chemotaxis, logistic growth and a cell death term, accounting for a lethal chemorepellent that is self-produced…
One of the most important findings in the study of chemotactic process is self-organized cellular aggregation, and a high volume of results are devoted to the analysis of a concentration of single species. Whereas, the multi-species case is…
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…
