We investigate the propagating profiles of a degenerate chemotaxis model describing the bacteria chemotaxis and consumption of oxygen by aerobic bacteria, in particular, the effect of the initial attractant distribution on bacterial clustering. We prove that the compact support of solutions may shrink if the signal concentration satisfies a special structure, and show the finite speed propagating property without assuming the special structure on attractant concentration, and obtain an explicit formula of the population spreading speed in terms of model parameters. The presented results suggest that bacterial cluster formation can be affected by chemotactic attractants and density-dependent dispersal.

This paper addresses the existence and regularity of weak solutions for a fully parabolic model of chemotaxis, with prevention of overcrowding, that degenerates in a two-sided fashion, including an extra nonlinearity represented by a $p$-Laplacian di ffusion term. To prove the existence of weak solutions, a Schauder fixed-point argument is applied to a regularized problem and the compactness method is used to pass to the limit. The local Holder regularity of weak solutions is established using the method of intrinsic scaling. The results are a contribution to showing, qualitatively, to what extent the properties of the classical Keller-Segel chemotaxis models are preserved in a more general setting. Some numerical examples illustrate the model.
We consider an epidemic model with nonlocal diffusion and free boundaries, which describes the evolution of an infectious agents with nonlocal diffusion and the infected humans without diffusion, where humans get infected by the agents, and infected humans in return contribute to the growth of the agents. The model can be viewed as a nonlocal version of the free boundary model studied by Ahn, Beak and Lin cite{ABL2016}, with its origin tracing back to Capasso et al. cite{CP1979, CM1981}. We prove that the problem has a unique solution defined for all $t>0$, and its long-time dynamical behaviour is governed by a spreading-vanishing dichotomy. Sharp criteria for spreading and vanishing are also obtained, which reveal significant differences from the local diffusion model in cite{ABL2016}. Depending on the choice of the kernel function in the nonlocal diffusion operator, it is expected that the nonlocal model here may have accelerated spreading, which would contrast sharply to the model of cite{ABL2016}, where the spreading has finite speed whenever spreading happens cite{ZLN2019}.
In this paper, we derive a new chemotaxis model with degenerate diffusion and density-dependent chemotactic sensitivity, and we provide a more realistic description of cell migration process for its early and late stages. Different from the existing studies focusing on the case of non-degenerate diffusion, the new model with degenerate diffusion causes us some essential difficulty on the boundedness estimates and the propagation behavior of its compact support. In the presence of logistic damping, for the early stage before tumour cells spread to the whole body, we first estimate the expanding speed of tumour region as $O(t^{beta})$ for $0<beta<frac{1}{2}$. Then, for the late stage of cell migration, we further prove that the asymptotic profile of the original system is just its corresponding steady state. The global convergence of the original weak solution to the steady state with exponential rate $O(e^{-ct})$ for some $c>0$ is also obtained.

In this paper, we study the spatial propagation dynamics of a parabolic-elliptic chemotaxis system with logistic source which reduces to the well-known Fisher-KPP equation without chemotaxis. It is known that for fast decaying initial functions, this system has a finite spreading speed. For slowly decaying initial functions, we show that the accelerating propagation will occur and chemotaxis does not affect the propagation mode determined by slowly decaying initial functions if the logistic damping is strong, that is, the system has the same upper and lower bounds of the accelerating propagation as for the classical Fisher-KPP equation. The main new idea of proving our results is the construction of auxiliary equations to overcome the lack of comparison principle due to chemotaxis.

In this paper, we study the time periodic problem to a three-dimensional chemotaxis-Stokes model with porous medium diffusion $Delta n^m$ and inhomogeneous mixed boundary conditions. By using a double-level approximation method and some iterative tec hniques, we obtain the existence and time-space uniform boundedness of weak time periodic solutions for any $m>1$. Moreover, we improve the regularity for $mlefrac{4}{3}$ and show that the obtained periodic solutions are in fact strong periodic solutions.
