We consider the stationary Keller-Segel system from chemotaxis in a ball and we show the existence of a solution concentrating at the boundary of the ball.
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…
