On the stabilizing effect of chemotaxis on bacterial aggregation patterns
We consider a chemotaxis-reaction-diffusion system that models the dynamics of colonies of Bacillus subtilis on thin agar plates. The system of equations was proposed by Leyva et al. [14], based on a previous non-chemotactic model by Kawasaki and collaborators [9], which reproduces the dense branchi...
