Title
Families of traveling impulses and fronts in some models with cross-diffusion
Abstract
An analysis of traveling wave solutions of partial differential equation (PDE) systems with cross-diffusion is presented. The systems under study fall in a general class of the classical Keller–Segel models to describe chemotaxis. The analysis is conducted using the theory of the phase plane analysis of the corresponding wave systems without a priory restrictions on the boundary conditions of the initial PDE. Special attention is paid to families of traveling wave solutions. Conditions for existence of front–impulse, impulse–front, and front–front traveling wave solutions are formulated. In particular, the simplest mathematical model is presented that has an impulse–impulse solution; we also show that a non-isolated singular point in the ordinary differential equation (ODE) wave system implies existence of free-boundary fronts. The results can be used for construction and analysis of different mathematical models describing systems with chemotaxis.
