Modeling and Simulation of a Bacterial Biofilm That Is Controlled by pH and Protonated Lactic Acids
We present a mathematical model for growth and control of facultative anaerobic bacterial biofilms in nutrient rich environments. The growth of the microbial population is limited by protonated lactic acids and the local pH value, which in return are altered as the microbial population changes.

Stability Analysis of a Model of Atherogenesis: An Energy Estimate Approach
Atherosclerosis is a disease of the vasculature that is characterized by chronic inflammation and the accumulation of lipids and apoptotic cells in the walls of large arteries. This disease results in plaque growth in an infected artery typically leading to occlusion of the artery. Atherosclerosis is the leading cause of human mortality in the US, much

Mathematical models of cell self-organization
Various classes of Partial Differential Equations have shown to be successful in describing the self-organization of bacterial colonies, a topic also sometimes called socio-biology. For instance parabolic systems are standard; the classical Patlak–Keller–

The Keller-Segel-Navier-Stokes system in RN{{\mathbb{R}}}^{N} is considered, where N≥3N\ge 3. We show the existence and uniqueness of local mild solutions for arbitrary initial data and gravitational potential in scaling invariant Lorentz spaces ...

We investigate the two-species chemotaxis predator-prey system given by the following system: ut=Δu−χ∇⋅(u∇w)+u(λ1−μ1ur1−1+av),x∈Ω,t>0,vt=Δv+ξ∇⋅(v∇z)+v(λ2−μ2vr2−1−bu),x∈Ω,t>0,0=Δw−w+v,x∈Ω,t>0,0=Δz−z+u,x∈Ω,t>0,\left\{\begin{array}{ll}{u}_{t}=\Delta u-\chi \

A degenerate migration-consumption model in domains of arbitrary dimension
In a smoothly bounded convex domain Ω⊂Rn ${\Omega}\subset {\mathbb{R}}^{n}$ with n ≥ 1, a no-flux initial-boundary value problem forut=Δuϕ(v),vt=Δv−uv, $$\begin{cases}_{t}={\Delta}\left(u\phi \left(v\right)\right),\quad \hfill \\ {v}_{t}={\Delta}v-uv ...

The fully parabolic multi-species chemotaxis system in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$
This article is devoted to the analysis of the parabolic–parabolic chemotaxis system with multi-components over $\mathbb{R}^2$ . The optimal small initial condition on the global existence of solutions for multi-species chemotaxis model in the ...

Analysis of a model describing bacterial colony expansion in radial geometry driven by chemotaxis
We investigate a recent model proposed in the literature elucidating patterns driven by chemotaxis, similar to viscous fingering phenomena. Notably, this model incorporates a singular advection term arising from a modified formulation of Darcy’s law.
