Global existence, blow-up behavior and numerical simulations for a class of chemotaxis-driven fish-mussel systems

In this work, we investigate a chemotaxis-driven fish--mussel ecosystem model described by a coupled system of partial differential equations subject to homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. Under suitable assumptions on the system parameters and initial data, we establish the global existence of classical solutions by employing semigroup methods together with a priori estimates. We also examine the possible blow-up behavior of solutions in a three-dimensional domain. To support the theoretical analysis, a finite element method is developed for the numerical approximation of the system, and convergence studies based on mesh refinement are carried out to verify the accuracy and stability of the proposed numerical scheme. Furthermore, numerical simulations illustrating the blow-up behavior of solutions in the computational domain are presented.

Global dynamics and diffusion-driven pattern formation in a predator-prey system with two chemicals

This work analyzes a predator-prey cross-diffusion system coupled with two chemical substances under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a bounded domain Omega subset of R^n (n >= 2) with smooth boundary dOmega. Under appropriate conditions on the model parameters, the global existence of classical solutions is established. Furthermore, by constructing a suitable Lyapunov functional, the asymptotic stability of the spatially homogeneous steady state is proved. The emergence of spatial patterns induced by diffusion-driven instability is also investigated. Owing to the complexity of the resulting four-equation system, the criteria for Turing bifurcation are derived numerically rather than analytically. Numerical simulations are performed to generate Turing bifurcation diagrams, illustrating the dynamical responses of the system to variations in the predation rate. These results provide new insights into the role of predation intensity in the formation of spatial patterns in predator-prey systems mediated by two chemical substances.

Global existence and stability in a class of chemotaxis systems with lethal interactions, nonlinear diffusion and production

This paper investigates a class of chemotaxis systems modeling lethal interactions in a smooth, bounded domain $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. We examine two distinct cases: (i) a fully parabolic system where both equations exhibit parabolic dynamics, and (ii) a parabolic-elliptic system featuring a parabolic first equation coupled with an elliptic second equation. Under appropriate parameter constraints, we establish the existence of unique globally bounded classical solutions for arbitrary spatial dimensions $n \geq 1$. Additionally, we employ carefully constructed Lyapunov functionals to analyze the long-term behavior of solutions, obtaining rigorous asymptotic stability results.

The simultaneous effect of chemotaxis and alarm-taxis on the global existence and stability of a predator-prey system

This study examines a fully parabolic predator-prey chemo-alarm-taxis system under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a bounded domain $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with a smooth boundary $\partialΩ$. Under specific parameter conditions, it is shown that the system admits a unique, globally bounded classical solution. The convergence of the solution is established through the construction of an appropriate Lyapunov functional. In addition, numerical simulations are presented to validate the asymptotic behaviour of the solution. The results highlight the significant role of chemotaxis and alarm-taxis coefficients in determining the existence and stability of predator-prey models, as discussed in the literature.

On the discrete to continuous condensing aggregation equation: A weak convergence approach

In this article, we study the passage of limits from discrete to continuous condensing aggregation equation which comprises of Oort-Hulst-Safronov (OHS) equation together with inverse aggregation process. We establish the relation between discrete and continuous condensing aggregation equations in its most generalized form, where kinetic-kernels with respect to OHS and inverse aggregation equations are not always equal. Convergence criterion is proved under suitable a priori estimates by approximating the continuous equation through a sequence of discrete equations, which subsequently converges towards the solution of the continuous equation by weak compactness principles. Existence of solution to the discrete model and uniform bounds on different order moments over finite time under particular conditions on kinetic-kernels are investigated. We analyze long-time dynamics and blowup of the solution leading to mass-loss or gelation for specific kernels. Three numerical experiments show the accuracy and convergence of approximated solutions to the exact solution of the continuous equation when $\varepsilon$ approaches zero.

Convergence-rate and error analysis of sectional-volume average method for the collisional breakage equation with multi-dimensional modelling

Recent literature reports two sectional techniques, the finite volume method [Das et al., 2020, SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 42(6): B1570-B1598] and the fixed pivot technique [Kushwah et al., 2023, Commun. Nonlinear Sci. Numer. Simul., 121(37): 107244] to solve one-dimensional collision-induced nonlinear particle breakage equation. It is observed that both the methods become inconsistent over random grids. Therefore, we propose a new birth modification strategy, where the newly born particles are proportionately allocated in three adjacent cells, depending upon the average volume in each cell. This modification technique improves the numerical model by making it consistent over random grids. A detailed convergence and error analysis for this new scheme is studied over different possible choices of grids such as uniform, nonuniform, locally-uniform, random and oscillatory grids. In addition, we have also identified the conditions upon kernels for which the convergence rate increases significantly and the scheme achieves second order of convergence over uniform, nonuniform and locally-uniform grids. The enhanced order of accuracy will enable the new model to be easily coupled with CFD-modules. Another significant advancement in the literature is done by extending the discrete model for two-dimensional equation over rectangular grids.

Existence and uniqueness of solutions for coagulation-fragmentation problems with singularity

In this paper, existence and uniqueness of solutions to a non-linear, initial value problem is studied. In particular, we consider a special type of problem which physically represents the time evolution of particle number density resulted due to the coagulation and fragmentation process. The coagulation kernel is chosen from a huge class of functions, both singular and non-singular in nature. On the other hand, fragmentation kernel includes practically relevant non-singular unbounded functions. Moreover, both the kernels satisfy a linear growth rate of particles at infinity. The existence theorem includes lesser restrictions over the kernels as compared to the previous studies. Furthermore, strong convergence results on the sequence of functions are used to establish the existence theory.
