The work presents a study of the non-linear mathematical model of tumor growth, proposed by Kolev and Zubik-Kowal (2011). The model is described by a system composed of four partial differential equations that represent the evolution of the…
A large population limit of the parabolic-parabolic Patlak-Keller-Segel (PKS) system with degenerate, nonlinear diffusion, e.g., of porous medium-type $-\frac{m}{m-1}\mathrm{div}(\rho \nabla \rho^{m-1})$, is studied. We show,…

In Hele-Shaw flows, boundaries between fluids develop unstable viscous fingers. At vanishing surface tension, the fingers further evolve to cusp-like singularities. We show that the problem admits a {\it weak solution} where shock fronts…

We propose a method to determine the smoothness of sufficiently flat solutions of one phase Hele-Shaw problems. The novelty is the observation that under a flatness assumption the free boundary --represented by the hodograph transform of…
In this work, we present and analyze a system of PDEs, which models tumor growth by considering chemotaxis, active transport, and random effects. The stochasticity of the system is modelled by random initial data and Wiener noises that…
We consider a free boundary problem for a system of PDEs, modeling the growth of a biological tissue. A morphogen, controlling volume growth, is produced by specific cells and then diffused and absorbed throughout the domain. The geometric…
We consider the inverse problem of identifying parameters in a variant of the diffuse interface model for tumour growth model proposed by Garcke, Lam, Sitka and Styles (Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci. 2016). The model contains three…

In this paper we study a tumor growth model with nutrients. The model presents dynamic patch solutions due to the contact inhibition among the tumor cells. We show that when the nutrients do not diffuse and the cells do not die, the tumor…
Tumor development is an evolutionary process in which a heterogeneous population of cells with differential growth capabilities compete for resources in order to gain a proliferative advantage. What are the minimal ingredients needed to…
