This paper deals with a Neumann boundary value problem for a Keller-Segel model with a cubic source term in ad-dimensional box(d=1,2,3), which describes the movement of cells in response to the presence of a chemical signal substance. 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 order ln(1/δ). Each initial perturbation certainly can behave drastically differently from another, which gives rise to the richness of patterns. Our results provide a mathematical description for early pattern formation in the model.

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.

AbstractIn this paper, we consider the Neumann boundary value problem with a parameter λ∈(0,∞): By using fixed point theorems in a cone, we obtain some existence, multiplicity and nonexistence results for positive solutions in terms of different values of λ. We also prove an existence and uniqueness theorem and show the continuous dependence of solutions on the parameter λ.

We study the nonlinear Neumann boundary value problem for semilinear heat equation ∂ t u − Δ u = λ | u | p , t > 0 , x ∈ R + n , u ( 0 , x ) = ε u 0 ( x ) , x ∈ R + n , − ∂ x u ( t , x ′ , 0 ) = γ | u | q ( t , x ′ , 0 ) , t > 0 , x ′ ∈ R n − 1 where p = 1 + 2 n , q = 1 + 1 n and ε > 0 is small enough. We investigate the life span of solutions for λ , γ > 0. Also we study the global in time existence and large time asymptotic behavior of solutions in the case of λ , γ < 0 and ∫ R + n u 0 ( x ) d x > 0.

SynopsisA Neumann boundary value problem for the equation rot μ − λμ = u is considered. The approach is by an integral equation method based on Cauchy's integral formula for generalized harmonic vector fields. Results on existence and uniqueness are obtained in terms of the familiar Fredholm alternative.

By using conformal mappings, it is possible to express the solution of certain boundary-value problems for the Laplace equation in terms of a single integral involving the given boundary data. We show that such explicit formulae can be used to obtain novel identity for special functions. A convenient tool for deriving this type of identity is the so-called global relation , which has appeared recently in a wide range of boundary-value problems. As a concrete application, we analyse the Neumann boundary-value problem for the Laplace equation in the exterior of the Hankel contour, which appears in the definition of both the gamma and the Riemann zeta functions. By using the explicit solution of this problem, we derive a number of novel identities involving the hypergeometric function. Also, we point out an interesting connection between the solution of the above Neumann boundary-value problem for a particular set of Neumann data and the Riemann hypothesis.
