This paper considers a stochastically perturbed Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes (KS-SNS) system arising from the biomathematics in two dimensions, where the diffusion of fluid is expressed by a fractional Laplacian with an exponent in $[1/2,1]$.…
Perhaps the most classical diffusion model for chemotaxis is the Keller-Segel system \begin{equation}\tag{$\ast$} \label{ks0} \left\{ \begin{aligned} u_t =&\; \Delta u - \nabla \cdot(u \nabla v) \quad in {\mathbb R}^2\times(0,\infty),\\ v…
We consider a stochastic Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system in $R^2$ describing the collective motion of cells in an ambient stochastic fluid flow, where the cells are attracted by a chemical substance and transported by the ambient fluid…
The Keller-Segel system describes the collective motion of cells that are attracted by a chemical substance and are able to emit it. In its simplest form, it is a conservative drift-diffusion equation for the cell density coupled to an…
We consider the parabolic-elliptic Patlak-Keller-Segel (PKS) model of chemotactic aggregation in two space dimensions which describes the aggregation of bacteria under chemo-taxis. When the mass is equal to $8\pi$ and the second moment is…
It is well-known that the two-dimensional Keller-Segel system admits finite time blowup solutions, which is the case if the initial density has a total mass greater than $8\pi$ and a finite second moment. Several constructive examples of…
