We obtain a fast diffusion equation (FDE) as scaling limit of a sequence of zero-range process with symmetric unit rate. Fast diffusion effect comes from the fact that the diffusion coefficient goes to infinity as the density goes to zero.…

The combination of protrusions and retractions in the movement of polarized cells leads to understand the effect of possible synchronisation between the two ends of the cells. This synchronisation, in turn, could lead to different dynamics…
