A general existence result for stationary solutions to the Keller-Segel system (Q1757428)

This paper deals with the study of a class of Liouville-type problems, which are related to stationary solutions of the Keller-Segel's model for chemotaxis. This analysis is developed in a smooth bounded subdomain of the two-dimensional Euclidean space. The main result establishes the existence of solutions under some algebraic conditions involving the real parameters contained in the problem. The proofs combine variational methods with Morse theory arguments.
