Consider a class of chemotaxis-fluid model incorporating a volume-filling effect in the sense of Painter and Hillen (Can. Appl. Math. Q. 2002; 10(4): 501-543), which is a supercritical parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system. As shown by…
Chemotactic singularity formation in the context of the Patlak-Keller-Segel equation is an extensively studied phenomenon. In recent years, it has been shown that the presence of fluid advection can arrest the singularity formation given…
We revisit the question of global regularity for the Patlak-Keller-Segel (PKS) chemotaxis model. The classical 2D hyperbolic-elliptic model blows up for initial mass M>8\pi. We consider more realistic scenario which takes into account the…
We study two types of divergence-free fluid flows on unbounded domains in two and three dimensions -- hyperbolic and shear flows -- and their influence on chemotaxis and combustion. We show that fast spreading by these flows, when they are…
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 are concerned with the hyperbolic Keller-Segel model with quorum sensing, a model describing the collective cell movement due to chemical signalling with a flux limitation for high cell densities. This is a first order quasilinear…
We study a system of two coupled nonlinear parabolic equations. It constitutes a variant of the Keller-Segel model for chemotaxis, i.e. it models the behaviour of a population of bacteria that interact by means of a signalling substance. We…
The purpose of this work is the study of \textit{chemotaxis} and how to model it through the equations of Keller-Segel. \textit{Chemotaxis} is a natural process which induces the organisms to direct their movement according to certain…
Chemotaxis plays a significant role in numerous physiological processes. The Keller-Segel equation serves as a mathematical model for simulating the phenomenon of cell population aggregation under chemotaxis, possessing physical properties…
We consider the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system in three dimensions and higher, corresponding to the mass supercritical case. We construct rigorously a solution which blows up in finite time by having its mass concentrating near a…
A Keller-Segel model describes macroscopic dynamics of bacterial colonies and biological cells. Bacteria secret chemical which attracts other bacteria so that they move towards chemical gradient creating nonlocal attraction between…
In this paper, we study the 3-D parabolic-parabolic and parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel models with Couette flow in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We prove that the blow-up phenomenon of solution can be suppressed by enhanced dissipation of large Couette…
In this paper we study the effect of the addition of a convective term, and of the resulting increased dissipation rate, on the growth of solutions to a general class of non-linear parabolic PDEs. In particular, we show that blow-up in…
The Keller-Segel equation, a classical chemotaxis model, and many of its variants have been extensively studied for decades. In this work, we focus on 3D Keller-Segel equation with a quadratic logistic damping term $-\mu \rho^2$ (modeling…
This paper is devoted to the analysis of the classical Keller-Segel system over $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 3$. We describe as much as possible the dynamics of the system characterized by various criteria, both in the parabolic-elliptic case and…
We investigate a class of aggregation-diffusion equations with strongly singular kernels and weak (fractional) dissipation in the presence of an incompressible flow. Without the flow the equations are supercritical in the sense that the…
In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for a generalized parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel equation with fractional dissipation and the additional mixing effect of advection by an incompressible flow. Under suitable mixing condition on…
A parabolic-parabolic (Patlak-) Keller-Segel model in up to three space dimensions with nonlinear cell diffusion and an additional nonlinear cross-diffusion term is analyzed. The main feature of this model is that there exists a new entropy…
This paper aims at providing a first step toward a qualitative theory for a new class of chemotaxis models derived from the celebrated Keller-Segel system, with the main novelty being that diffusion is nonlinear with flux delimiter…
The Keller--Segel PDE is a model for chemotaxis known to exhibit possible finite-time blow-up. Following a seminal work by Tello and Winkler, a logistic damping term is added in this PDE and local well-posedness of mild solutions is proven.…
