We demonstrate a geometrically inspired technique for computing Evans functions for the linearised operators about travelling waves. Using the examples of the F-KPP equation and a Keller-Segel model of bacterial chemotaxis, we produce an Evans function which is computable through several orders of magnitude in the spectral parameter and show how such a function can naturally be extended into th...

Abstract: A simplified Keller–Segel model is studied by means of Lie symmetry based approaches. It is shown that a (1 + 2)-dimensional Keller–Segel type system, together with the correctly-specified boundary and/or initial conditions, is invariant with respect to infinite-dimensional Lie algebras. A Lie symmetry classification of the Cauchy problem depending on the initial profile form is prese...

We consider a rather general class of evolutionary PDEs involving dissipation (of possibly fractional order), which competes with quadratic nonlinearities on the regularity of the overall equation. This includes as prototype models, Burgers’ equation, the Navier-Stokes equations, the surface quasi-geostrophic equations and the Keller-Segel model for chemotaxis. Here we establish a Petrowsky typ...

We develop a novel upwind-difference potentials method for the Patlak-Keller-Segel chemotaxis model that can be used to approximate problems in complex geometries. The chemotaxis model under consideration is described by a system of two nonlinear PDEs: a convection-diffusion equation for the cell density coupled with a reaction-diffusion equation for the chemoattractant concentration. Chemotaxi...

We consider a generalized class of Keller-Segel models describing the chemo-taxis of biological populations (bacteria, amoebae, endothelial cells, social insects ,...). We show the analogy with nonlinear mean field Fokker-Planck equations and generalized thermodynamics. As an illustration, we introduce a new model of chemotaxis incorporating both effects of anomalous diffusion and exclusion pri...

A widespread phenomenon in moving microorganisms and cells is their ability to reorient themselves depending on changes of concentrations of certain chemical signals. In this paper we discuss kinetic models for chemosensitive movement, which also takes into account evaluations of gradient fields of chemical stimuli which subsequently influence the motion of the respective microbiological specie...

This paper focuses on how to approximate traveling wave solutions for various kinds of partial differential equations via artificial neural networks. A solution is hard obtain with traditional numerical methods when the corresponding speed unknown in advance. We propose a novel method both and network an additional free parameter. proved that under mild assumption, converges analytic parameter ...
