A Chemotaxis System with Logistic Source

TLDR
In this article, the existence of global bounded classical solutions is proved under the assumption that either the space dimension does not exceed two, or that the logistic damping effect is strong enough.
Abstract
This paper deals with a nonlinear system of two partial differential equations arising in chemotaxis, involving a source term of logistic type The existence of global bounded classical solutions is proved under the assumption that either the space dimension does not exceed two, or that the logistic damping effect is strong enough Also, the existence of global weak solutions is shown under rather mild conditions Secondly, the corresponding stationary problem is studied and some regularity properties are given It is proved that in presence of certain, sufficiently strong logistic damping there is only one nonzero equilibrium, and all solutions of the non-stationary system approach this steady state for large times On the other hand, for small logistic terms some multiplicity and bifurcation results are established

Toward a mathematical theory of Keller–Segel models of pattern formation in biological tissues

TL;DR: In this article, a survey and critical analysis focused on a variety of chemotaxis models in biology, namely the classical Keller-Segel model and its subsequent modifications, which, in several cases, have been developed to obtain models that prevent the non-physical blow up of solutions.

Global asymptotic stability of constant equilibria in a fully parabolic chemotaxis system with strong logistic dampening

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the unique nontrivial spatially homogeneous equilibrium given by u = v ≡ 1 μ is globally asymptotically stable in the sense that for any choice of suitably regular nonnegative initial data (u 0, v 0 ) such that u 0 ≢ 0, the above problem possesses a uniquely determined global classical solution ( u, v ) with ( u, v ) | t = 0 = ( u 0, v 0) which satisfies ∞ ∞ as t → ∞.

TL;DR: The neighborhood of an invariant manifold near an equilibrium point is a neighborhood of nonlinear parabolic equations in physical, biological and engineering problems as mentioned in this paper, where the neighborhood of a periodic solution is defined by the invariance of the manifold.
