Chemotaxis plays a crucial role in a variety of processes in biology and ecology. Quite often it acts to improve efficiency of biological reactions; one example is the immune system signalling, where infected tissues release chemokines…

In this paper we consider the parabolic-elliptic Patlak-Keller-Segel models in $\mathbb T^d$ with $d=2,3$ with the additional effect of advection by a large shear flow. Without the shear flow, the model is $L^1$ critical in two dimensions…

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…

A class of parabolic-parabolic Keller-Segel systems with degenerate diffusion and volume filling is studied in a bounded domain subject to no-flux boundary conditions. The equations are derived from a multiphase fluid model. The interplay…
This paper is concerned with a parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system where both diffusive and chemotactic coefficients (motility functions) depend on the chemical signal density. This system was originally proposed by Keller and Segel in…
As a class of nonlinear partial differential equations, the Keller-Segel system is widely used to model chemotaxis in biology. In this paper, we present the construction and analysis of a decoupled linear, mass-conservative, block-centered…
The Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system governs chemotaxis in liquid environments. This system is to be solved for the organism and chemoattractant densities and for the fluid velocity and pressure. It is known that if the total initial cell…

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…
