AbstractWe characterize the existence of solutions to the quasilinear Riccati-type equation\left\{\begin{aligned} \displaystyle-\operatorname{div}\mathcal{A}(x,\nabla u)% &\displaystyle=|\nabla u|^{q}+\sigma&&\displaystyle\phantom{}\text{in }\Omega,% \\ \displaystyle u&\displaystyle=0&&\displaystyle\phantom{}\text{on }\partial% \Omega,\end{aligned}\right.with a distributional or measure datum σ. Here {\operatorname{div}\mathcal{A}(x,\nabla u)} is a quasilinear elliptic operator modeled after the p-Laplacian ({p>1}), and Ω is a bounded domain whose boundary is sufficiently flat (in the sense of Reifenberg). For distributional data, we assume that {p>1} and {q>p}. For measure data, we assume that they are compactly supported in Ω, {p>\frac{3n-2}{2n-1}}, and q is in the sub-linear range {p-1<q<1}. We also assume more regularity conditions on {\mathcal{A}} and on {\partial\Omega\Omega} in this case.

As one of nature's most striking examples of collective behaviour, bird flocks have attracted extensive research. However, we still lack an understanding of the attractive and repulsive forces that govern interactions between individuals within flocks and how these forces influence neighbours' relative positions and ultimately determine the shape of flocks. We address these issues by analysing the three-dimensional movements of wild jackdaws ( Corvus monedula ) in flocks containing 2–338 individuals. We quantify the social interaction forces in large, airborne flocks and find that these forces are highly anisotropic. The long-range attraction in the direction perpendicular to the movement direction is stronger than that along it, and the short-range repulsion is generated mainly by turning rather than changing speed. We explain this phenomenon by considering wingbeat frequency and the change in kinetic and gravitational potential energy during flight, and find that changing the direction of movement is less energetically costly than adjusting speed for birds. Furthermore, our data show that collision avoidance by turning can alter local neighbour distributions and ultimately change the group shape. Our results illustrate the macroscopic consequences of anisotropic interaction forces in bird flocks, and help to draw links between group structure, local interactions and the biophysics of animal locomotion.

This paper proposes 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. The presentation is organized in three parts. The first part focuses on a survey of some sample models, namely the original model and some of its developments, such as flux limited models, or models derived according to similar concepts. The second part is devoted to the qualitative analysis of analytic problems, such as the existence of solutions, blow-up and asymptotic behavior. The third part deals with the derivation of macroscopic models from the underlying description, delivered by means of kinetic theory methods. This approach leads to the derivation of classical models as well as that of new models, which might deserve attention as far as the related analytic problems are concerned. Finally, an overview of the entire contents leads to suggestions for future research activities.

AbstractWe are concerned with an elliptic problem which describes a mean field equation of the equilibrium turbulence of vortices with variable intensities. In the first part of the paper, we describe the blow-up picture and highlight the differences from the standard mean field equation as we observe non-quantization phenomenon. In the second part, we discuss the Moser–Trudinger inequality in terms of the blow-up masses and get the existence of solutions in a non-coercive regime by means of a variational argument, which is based on some improved Moser–Trudinger inequalities.

We are concerned with the following modified nonlinear Schrödinger system:-Δu+u-(1/2)uΔ(u2)=(2α/(α+β))|u|α-2|v|βu,  x∈Ω,  -Δv+v-(1/2)vΔ(v2)=(2β/(α+β))|u|α|v|β-2v,  x∈Ω,  u=0,  v=0,  x∈∂Ω, whereα>2,  β>2,  α+β<2·2*,  2*=2N/(N-2)is the critical Sobolev exponent, andΩ⊂ℝN  (N≥3)is a bounded smooth domain. By using the perturbation method, we establish the existence of both positive and negative solutions for this system.

We prove that a smooth solution of the 3D Cahn-Hilliard-Boussinesq system with zero viscosity in a bounded domain breaks down if a certain norm of vorticity blows up at the same time. Here, this norm is weaker than bmo-norm.
