The Patlak-Keller-Segel Model and Its Variations: Properties of Solutions via Maximum Principle
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we investigate qualitative and asymptotic behavior of solutions for a class of diffusion-aggregation equations. The challenge in the analysis consists of the nonlocal aggregation term as well as the degeneracy of the diffusion term which generates compactly supported solutions. The key tools used in the paper are maximum-principle type arguments as well as estimates on mass concentration of solutions.

Global Existence and Finite Time Blow-Up for Critical Patlak-Keller-Segel Models with Inhomogeneous Diffusion
The L-critical parabolic-elliptic Patlak-Keller-Segel system is a classical model of chemotactic aggregation in micro-organisms well-known to have critical mass phenomena [10, 8]. In this paper we study this critical mass phenomenon in the context of Patlak-Keller-Segel models with spatially varying diffusivity and decay rate of the chemo-attractant. The primary tool for the proof of global exi...
متن کاملVolume effects in the Keller-Segel model: energy estimates preventing blow-up
We obtain a priori estimates for the classical chemotaxis model of Patlak, Keller and Segel when a nonlinear diffusion or a nonlinear chemosensitivity is considered accounting for the finite size of the cells. We will show how entropy estimates give natural conditions on the nonlinearities implying the absence of blow-up for the solutions.
متن کاملCritical mass for a Patlak-Keller-Segel model with degenerate diffusion in higher dimensions
This paper is devoted to the analysis of non-negative solutions for a generalisation of the classical parabolic-elliptic PatlakKeller-Segel system with d ≥ 3 and porous medium-like non-linear diffusion. Here, the non-linear diffusion is chosen in such a way that its scaling and the one of the Poisson term coincide. We exhibit that the qualitative behaviour of solutions is decided by the initial...
متن کاملA finite volume scheme for the Patlak-Keller-Segel chemotaxis model
A finite volume method is presented to discretize the Patlak-Keller-Segel (PKS) model for chemosensitive movements. On the one hand, we prove existence and uniqueness of a numerical solution to the proposed scheme. On the other hand, we give a priori estimates and establish a threshold on the initial mass, for which we show that the numerical approximation convergences to the solution to the PK...
متن کاملGrow-Up Rate and Refined Asymptotics for a Two-Dimensional Patlak-Keller-Segel Model in a Disk
We consider a special case of the Patlak-Keller-Segel system in a disc, which arises in the modelling of chemotaxis phenomena. For a critical value of the total mass, the solutions are known to be global in time but with density becoming unbounded, leading to a phenomenon of mass-concentration in infinite time. We establish the precise grow-up rate and obtain refined asymptotic estimates of the...
