In this paper we survey some results concerning the construction of spike-layers, namely solutions to singularly perturbed equations that exhibit a concentration behaviour. Their study is moti- vated by the analysis of pattern formation in biological systems such as the Keller-Segel or the Gierer- Meinhardt’s. We describe some general perturbative variational strategy useful to study concentration at points, and also at spheres in radially symmetric situations.

Abstract

In this paper we survey some results concerning the construction of spike-layers, namely solutions to singularly perturbed equations that exhibit a concentration behaviour. Their study is moti- vated by the analysis of pattern formation in biological systems such as the Keller-Segel or the Gierer- Meinhardt’s. We describe some general perturbative variational strategy useful to study concentration at points, and also at spheres in radially symmetric situations.
