    We study a hyperbolic-parabolic model of chemotaxis in dimensions one and two. In particular, we prove the global existence of classical solutions in certain dissipation regimes

    Boundedness and homogeneous asymptotics for a fractional logistic Keller-Segel equations

    Full text link
    In this paper we consider a dd-dimensional (d=1,2d=1,2) parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel equation with a logistic forcing and a fractional diffusion of order α∈(0,2)\alpha \in (0,2). We prove uniform in time boundedness of its solution in the supercritical range α>d(1−c)\alpha>d\left(1-c\right), where cc is an explicit constant depending on parameters of our problem. Furthermore, we establish sufficient conditions for ∥u(t)−u∞∥L∞→0\|u(t)-u_\infty\|_{L^\infty}\rightarrow0, where u∞≡1u_\infty\equiv 1 is the only nontrivial homogeneous solution. Finally, we provide a uniqueness result

    Nonlinear Aggregation-Diffusion Equations: Radial Symmetry and Long Time Asymptotics

    Full text link
    We analyze under which conditions equilibration between two competing effects, repulsion modeled by nonlinear diffusion and attraction modeled by nonlocal interaction, occurs. This balance leads to continuous compactly supported radially decreasing equilibrium configurations for all masses. All stationary states with suitable regularity are shown to be radially symmetric by means of continuous Steiner symmetrization techniques. Calculus of variations tools allow us to show the existence of global minimizers among these equilibria. Finally, in the particular case of Newtonian interaction in two dimensions they lead to uniqueness of equilibria for any given mass up to translation and to the convergence of solutions of the associated nonlinear aggregation-diffusion equations towards this unique equilibrium profile up to translations as t→∞t\to\infty
