The capacity to aggregate through chemosensitive movement forms a paradigm of self-organisation, with examples spanning cellular and animal systems. A basic mechanism assumes a phenotypically homogeneous population that secretes its own…
In this paper, we study the minimal Keller-Segel model with a logistic source and obtain quantitative and qualitative descriptions of the competition between logistic damping and other ingredient, especially, chemotactic aggregation to…
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…
We consider two-dimensional versions of the Keller--Segel model for the chemotaxis with either classical (Brownian) or fractional (anomalous) diffusion. Criteria for blowup of solutions in terms of suitable Morrey spaces norms are derived.…
Chemotaxis, the directional locomotion of cells towards a source of a chemical gradient, is an integral part of many biological processes - for example, bacteria motion, single-cell or multicellular organisms development, immune response,…
We study the stationary Keller--Segel chemotaxis models with logistic cellular growth over a one-dimensional region subject to the Neumann boundary condition. We show that nonconstant solutions emerge in the sense of Turing's instability as…
This paper is framed in a series of studies on attraction-repulsion chemotaxis models combining different effects: nonlinear diffusion and sensitivities and logistic sources, for the dynamics of the cell density, and consumption and/or…
{\sl Escherichia coli} ({\sl E. coli}) bacteria govern their trajectories by switching between running and tumbling modes as a function of the nutrient concentration they experienced in the past. At short time one observes a drift of the…
This paper studies a chemotaxis system where cells move in response to a chemical signal within a confined habitat. The model includes external source terms that combine local and nonlocal growth with dampening effects. The main focus is on…
Active particles with their characteristic feature of self-propulsion are regarded as the simplest models for motility in living systems. The accumulation of active particles in low activity regions has led to the general belief that…
The transport and chemical reactions of solutes are modelled as a cellular automaton in which molecules of different species perform a random walk on a regular lattice and react according to a local probabilistic rule. The model describes…
Perhaps the most classical diffusion model for chemotaxis is the Keller-Segel system $\begin{equation} \begin{cases} u_{t} =\Delta u - \nabla \cdot(u \nabla v) \ \ \ \text{in } \mathbb{R}^2\times(0,T),\\[5pt] v =…
Recent experiments with self-phoretic particles at low concentrations show a pronounced dynamic clustering [I. Theurkauff \emph{et al.}, Phys.\ Rev.\ Lett.\ \textbf{108}, 268303 (2012)]. We model this situation by taking into account the…
In this article we highlight chemotaxis (cellular movement) as a rich source of potential engineering applications and computational models, highlighting current research and possible future work. We first give a brief description of the…
Bacterial cells navigate around their environment by directing their movement along chemical gradients. This process, known as chemotaxis, can promote the rapid expansion of bacterial populations into previously unoccupied territories.…
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…
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…
Single enzyme chemotaxis is a phenomenon by which a non-equilibrium spatial distribution of an enzyme is created and maintained by concentration gradients of the substrate and product of the catalyzed reaction. These gradients can arise…
This manuscript deals with the three-dimensional version of a flux-limited Keller-Segel system coupled to the incompressible Stokes equations through transport and buoyancy. The main goal consists in verifying that within a certain…
Inspired by the chemotaxis interaction of living cells, we have developed an agent-based approach for self-organizing shape formation. Since all our simulations begin with a different uniform random configuration and our agents move…
