Sharp conditions to avoid collisions in singular Cucker-Smale interactions

We consider the Cucker–Smale flocking model with a singular communication weight ψ(s)=s−α with α>0. We provide a critical value of the exponent α in the communication weight leading to global regularity of solutions or finite-time collision between particles. For α≥1, we show that there is no...
