In this paper, we show how the global bifurcation theory for nonlinear Fredholm operators (Theorem 4.3 of [Shi & Wang, 2009]) and for compact operators (Theorem 1.3 of [Rabinowitz, 1971]) can be used in the study of the nonconstant stationary solutions for a volume-filling chemotaxis model with logistic growth under Neumann boundary conditions. Our results show that infinitely many local branches of nonconstant solutions bifurcate from the positive constant solution [Formula: see text] at [Formula: see text]. Moreover, for each [Formula: see text], we prove that each [Formula: see text] can be extended into a global curve, and the projection of the bifurcation curve [Formula: see text] onto the [Formula: see text]-axis contains [Formula: see text].

This paper deals with a Neumann boundary value problem for a volume-filling chemotaxis model with logistic growth in ad-dimensional boxTd=(0,π)d  (d=1,2,3). It is proved that given any general perturbation of magnitudeδ, its nonlinear evolution is dominated by the corresponding linear dynamics along a finite number of fixed fastest growing modes, over a time period of the orderln⁡(1/δ). Each initial perturbation certainly can behave drastically different from another, which gives rise to the richness of patterns.

We consider a Keller-Segel type chemotaxis model with logarithmic sensitivity and logistic growth. It is a 2 by 2 system describing the interaction of cells and a chemical signal. We study Cauchy problem with finite initial data, i.e., without the commonly used smallness assumption on  initial perturbations around a constant ground state. We survey a sequence of recent results by the authors on  the existence of global-in-time solution,  long-time behavior, vanishing coefficient limit and optimal time decay rates of the solution.

In this paper, we investigate pattern formation in Keller–Segel chemotaxis models over a multidimensional bounded domain subject to homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. It is shown that the positive homogeneous steady state loses its stability as chemoattraction rate [Formula: see text] increases. Then using Crandall–Rabinowitz local theory with [Formula: see text] being the bifurcation parameter, we obtain the existence of nonhomogeneous steady states of the system which bifurcate from this homogeneous steady state. Stability of the bifurcating solutions is also established through rigorous and detailed calculations. Our results provide a selection mechanism of stable wavemode which states that the only stable bifurcation branch must have a wavemode number that minimizes the bifurcation value. Finally, we perform extensive numerical simulations on the formation of stable steady states with striking structures such as boundary spikes, interior spikes, stripes, etc. These nontrivial patterns can model cellular aggregation that develop through chemotactic movements in biological systems.
