Metastability in Chemotaxis Models ∗
We consider pattern formation in a chemotaxis model with a vanishing chemotaxis coefficient at high population densities. This model was developed in Hillen and Painter (2001, Adv. Appli. Math. 26(4), 280–301.) to model volume effects. The solutions show spatio-temporal patterns which allow for ultra-long transients and merging or coarsening. We study the underlying bifurcation structure and sh...
متن کاملOn Metastability in Supersymmetric Models
We make a critical reappraisal of ‘unbounded-from-below’ (UFB) constraints in the MSSM and R-parity violating models. We explain why the ‘traditional’ UFB bounds are neither necessary nor sufficient and propose, instead, a sufficient condition which ensures that there are no local minima along the flat directions. This conservative (but meaningful) condition divides the parameter space into reg...
متن کاملMetastability in Stochastic Dynamics of Disordered Mean-field Models
We study a class of Markov chains that describe reversible stochastic dynamics of a large class of disordered mean field models at low temperatures. Our main purpose is to give a precise relation between the metastable time scales in the problem to the properties of the rate functions of the corresponding Gibbs measures. We derive the analog of the WentzellFreidlin theory in this case, showing ...
متن کاملNavigating through models of chemotaxis.
Chemotaxis in eukaryotic cells involves the coordination of several related but separable processes: motility, polarization, and gradient sensing. Mathematical models that have been proposed to explain chemotaxis typically focus on only one of these processes. We summarize the strengths and weaknesses of the models and point out the need for an integrated model.
متن کاملTravelling waves in hybrid chemotaxis models.
Hybrid models of chemotaxis combine agent-based models of cells with partial differential equation models of extracellular chemical signals. In this paper, travelling wave properties of hybrid models of bacterial chemotaxis are investigated. Bacteria are modelled using an agent-based (individual-based) approach with internal dynamics describing signal transduction. In addition to the chemotacti...
