We introduce a multi-species chemotaxis type system admitting an arbitrarily large number of population species, all of which are attracted versus repelled by a single chemical substance. The production versus destruction rates of the chemotactic substance by the species is described by a probability measure. For such a model, we investigate the variational structures, in particular, we prove the existence of Lyapunov functionals, we establish duality properties as well as a logarithmic Hardy–Littlewood–Sobolev type inequality for the associated free energy. The latter inequality provides the optimal critical value for the conserved total population mass.

We consider semilinear elliptic problems on two-dimensional hyperbolic space. A model problem of our study is

where H 1(𝔹2) denotes the Sobolev space on the disc model of the hyperbolic space and f(x, t) denotes the function of critical growth in dimension 2. We first establish the Palais–Smale (PS) condition for the functional corresponding to the above equation, and using the PS condition we obtain existence of solutions. In addition, using a concentration argument, we also explore existence of infinitely many sign-changing solutions.

We study two different heat-type equations. First, global well-posedness in the energy space of some high-order semilinear heat-type equation with exponential nonlinearity is obtained for even space dimensions. Second, a finite-time blow-up result for the critical monomial focusing heat equation with the p-Laplacian is proved.

This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a harmonic potential and exponential growth nonlinearity in two space dimensions. In the defocusing case, global well-posedness is obtained. In the focusing case, existence of nonglobal solutions is discussed via potential-well arguments.
