The fractional Keller-Segel model
نویسنده
چکیده
The Keller-Segel model is a system of partial differential equations modelling chemotactic aggregation in cellular systems. This model has blowing up solutions for large enough initial conditions in dimensions d ≥ 2, but all the solutions are regular in one dimension; a mathematical fact that crucially affects the patterns that can form in the biological system. One of the strongest assumptions of the KellerSegel model is the diffusive character of the cellular motion, known to be false in many situations. We extend this model to such situations in which the cellular dispersal is better modelled by a fractional operator. We analyze this fractional Keller-Segel model and find that all solutions are again globally bounded in time in one dimension. This fact shows the robustness of the main biological conclusions obtained from the Keller-Segel model.

The one-dimensional Keller-Segel model with fractional diffusion of cells
We investigate the one-dimensional Keller-Segel model where the diffusion is replaced by a non-local operator, namely the fractional diffusion with exponent 0 < α ≤ 2. We prove some features related to the classical two-dimensional Keller-Segel system: blow-up may or may not occur depending on the initial data. More precisely a singularity appears in finite time when α < 1 and the initial confi...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Keller-Segel Model with a Fractional Derivative without Singular Kernel
Using some investigations based on information theory, the model proposed by Keller and Segel was extended to the concept of fractional derivative using the derivative with fractional order without singular kernel recently proposed by Caputo and Fabrizio. We present in detail the existence of the coupled-solutions using the fixed-point theorem. A detailed analysis of the uniqueness of the coupl...
متن کاملA (1+2)-Dimensional Simplified Keller-Segel Model: Lie Symmetry and Exact Solutions
This research is a natural continuation of the recent paper “Exact solutions of the simplified Keller–Segel model” (Commun Nonlinear Sci Numer Simulat 2013, 18, 2960–2971). It is shown that a (1+2)-dimensional Keller–Segel type system is invariant with respect infinite-dimensional Lie algebra. All possible maximal algebras of invariance of the Neumann boundary value problems based on the Keller...
متن کاملFrom 1970 until Present: the Keller-segel Model in Chemotaxis and Its Consequences
This article summarizes various aspects and results for some general formulations of the classical chemotaxis models also known as Keller-Segel models. It is intended as a survey of results for the most common formulation of this classical model for positive chemotactical movement and offers possible generalizations of these results to more universal models. Furthermore it collects open questio...
متن کاملPattern Formation (i): the Keller-segel Model
Abstract. We investigate nonlinear dynamics near an unstable constant equilibrium in the classical Keller-Segel model. Given any general perturbation of magnitude δ, we prove that its nonlinear evolution is dominated by the corresponding linear dynamics along a fixed finite number of fastest growing modes, over a time period of ln 1 δ . Our result can be interpreted as a rigourous mathematical ...
