Abstract: We are interested in studying the stationary solutions and phase transitions of aggregation equations with degenerate diffusion of porous medium-type, with exponent 1<m<infty. We first prove the existence of possibly infinitely many bifurcations from the spatially homogeneous steady state. We then focus our attention on the associated free energy proving existence of minimisers and even uniqueness for sufficiently weak interactions. In the absence of uniqueness, we show that the system exhibits phase transitions: we classify values of m and interaction potentials W for which these phase transitions are continuous or discontinuous. Finally, we comment on the limit moinfty and the influence that the presence of a phase transition has on this limit.
