where p > 1. 1 < p < 2 is called the fast p-Laplacian diffusion, while p > 2 is called the slow p-Laplacian diffusion. Especially, the p-Laplacian Keller-Segel model turns to the original model when p = 2.The Keller-Segel model was firstly presented in 1970 to describe the chemotaxis of cellular slime molds [13, 14]. The original model was considered in 2D,

In this paper, we consider the compressible NavierStokes equations for isentropic flow of finite total mass when the initial density is either of compact or infinite support. The viscosity coefficient is assumed to be a power function of the density so that the Cauchy problem is well-posed. New global existence results are established when the density function connects to the vacuum states continuously. For this, some new <i>a priori</i> estimates are obtained to take care of the degeneracy of the viscosity coefficient at vacuum. We will also give a non-global existence theorem of regular solutions when the initial data are of compact support in Eulerian coordinates which implies singularity forms at the interface separating the gas and vacuum.

This paper investigates infinite-time spreading and finite-time blow-up for the Keller-Segel system. For 0 < m ≤ 2 − 2 / d, the L p space for both dynamic and steady solutions are detected with ${p:=\frac{d(2-m)}{2} }$ . Firstly, the global existence of the weak solution is proved for small initial data in L p . Moreover, when m > 1 − 2 / d, the weak solution preserves mass and satisfies the hyper-contractive estimates in L q for any p < q < ∞. Furthermore, for slow diffusion 1 < m ≤ 2 − 2/d, this weak solution is also a weak entropy solution which blows up at finite time provided by the initial negative free energy. For m > 2 − 2/d, the hyper-contractive estimates are also obtained. Finally, we focus on the L p norm of the steady solutions, it is shown that the energy critical exponent m = 2d/(d + 2) is the critical exponent separating finite L p norm and infinite L p norm for the steady state solutions.

We establish two nonlinear compactness theorems in Lp(0,T;B) with hypothesis on time translations, which are nonlinear counterparts of two results by Simon (1987) [1]. The first theorem sharpens a result by Maitre (2003) [10] and is important in the study of doubly nonlinear elliptic–parabolic equations. Based on this theorem, we then obtain a time translation counterpart of a result by Dubinskii˘ (1965) [5], which is supposed to be useful in the study of some nonlinear kinetic equations (e.g. the FENE-type bead–spring chains model).

Consider the following elliptic system: \begin{equation*} \left\{\aligned&-\ve^2\Delta u_1+\lambda_1u_1=\mu_1u_1^3+\alpha_1u_1^{p-1}+\beta u_2^2u_1\quad&\text{in }\Omega,\\ &-\ve^2\Delta u_2+\lambda_2u_2=\mu_2u_2^3+\alpha_2u_2^{p-1}+\beta u_1^2u_2\quad&\text{in }\Omega,\\ &u_1,u_2>0\quad\text{in }\Omega,\quad u_1=u_2=0\quad\text{on }\partial\Omega,\endaligned\right. \end{equation*} where $\Omega\subset\bbr^4$ is a bounded domain, $\lambda_i,\mu_i,\alpha_i>0$ $(i=1,2)$ and $\beta\not=0$ are constants, $\ve>0$ is a small parameter and $2<p<2^*=4$. By using variational methods, we study the existence of ground state solutions to this system for sufficiently small $\ve>0$. The concentration behaviors of least-energy solutions as $\ve\to0^+$ are also studied. Furthermore, by combining elliptic estimates and local energy estimates, we obtain the locations of these spikes as $\ve\to0^+$.
