Abstract

We consider a singular limit problem for the Cauchy problem of the Keller–Segel equation in a critical function space. We show that a solution to the Keller–Segel system in a scaling critical function space converges to a solution to the drift–diffusion system of parabolic–elliptic type (the simplified Keller–Segel model) in the critical space strongly as the relaxation time \(\tau \rightarrow \infty \). For the proof of singular limit problem, we employ generalized maximal regularity for the heat equation and use it systematically with the sequence of embeddings between the interpolation spaces \(\dot{B}^s_{q,\sigma }(\mathbb {R}^n)\) and \(\dot{F}^s_{q,\sigma }(\mathbb {R}^n)\).

Notes

  1. Such a difficulty was avoided in [3] by splitting the time integration.

  2. The choice of T is independent of \(\tau >1\).
