Confinement for repulsive-attractive kernels

Abstract: We investigate the confinement properties of solutions of the aggregation equation with repulsive-attractive potentials. We show that solutions remain compactly supported in a large fixed ball depending on the initial data and the potential. The arguments apply to the functional setting of probability measures with mildly singular repulsive-attractive potentials and to the functional setting of smooth solutions with a potential being the sum of the Newtonian repulsion at the origin and a smooth suitably growin… Show more

“…For the repulsive-attractive case, the requirement p < q ensures that the nonlocal interactions are repulsive at short length scales and attractive at long length scales. This competition between short-range and long-range effects leads to rich pattern formation in both the steady states of solutions and the minimizers of the corresponding energy E m ; see [6,7,13,33,35,40,43,45,65].…”

“…In many biological applications the number of interacting particles is large and one may consider the underlying continuum formulation of (1.1), which is known as the aggregation equation [9,11,42] and of the form ρ t + ∇ · (ρu) = 0, u = −∇W * ρ, (1.2) where u = u(t, x) is the macroscopic velocity field and ρ = ρ(t, x) denotes the density of particles at location x ∈ R n at time t > 0. The aggregation equation (1.2) has been studied extensively recently, mainly in terms of its gradient flow structure [2,29,30,44,54], the blow-up dynamics for fully attractive potentials [9,10,21,28], and the rich variety of steady states for repulsiveattractive potentials [3,4,5,8,10,19,20,22,23,38,39,50,55,56,27,26,31]. In biological applications, the interactions determined by the force F , or equivalently the interaction potential W , are usually described by short-range repulsion, preventing collisions between the individuals, as well as long-range attraction, keeping the swarm cohesive [46,47].…”

The aggregation equation (1.3) whose wellposedness has been proved in [12] has extensively been studied recently, mainly in terms of its gradient flow structure [55,34,65,2,35], the blow-up dynamics for fully attractive potentials [8,25,11,32], and the rich variety of steady states [43,44,7,62,27,26,11,4,3,66,67,5,21,24,27]. If the radially symmetric potential W is purely attractive, e.g.…”
