We analyze the dynamics of desorption of a polymer molecule which is pulled at one of its ends with force $f$, trying to desorb it. We assume a monomer to desorb when the pulling force on it exceeds a critical value $f_{c}$. We formulate an…

In this work we first prove, by formal arguments, that the diffusion limit of nonlinear kinetic equations, where both the transport term and the turning operator are density-dependent, leads to volume-exclusion chemotactic equations. We…
