The purpose of this work is the study of \textit{chemotaxis} and how to model it through the equations of Keller-Segel. \textit{Chemotaxis} is a natural process which induces the organisms to direct their movement according to certain…

Chemotaxis allows single cells to self-organize at the population level, as classically described by Keller-Segel models. We show that chemotactic aggregation can be understood using a generalized Maxwell construction based on the balance…

We present a discrete model of chemotaxis whereby cells responding to a chemoattractant are seen as individual agents whose movement is described through a set of rules that result in a biased random walk. In order to take into account…
