A minimal model of nematode migration through soil in response to a chemical gradient is presented. We consider Fickian, fractal and porous-media type diffusion of the nematodes, for which the steady-state nematode distributions are found to compare favourably with experimental observations. Analytical results for Fickian nematode diffusion are presented, which are appropriate for the small- and large-time evolution of a nematode distribution. Numerical integrations allow us to compare the three types of nematode diffusion, to provide numerical validation of our analytical results, and to investigate the dependence of the results of our model upon certain key parameters. We conclude with a summary of results and a call for further experimental work.

In this paper, we study the global existence of positive solutions to the norm-preserving non-local heat flow of the porous-media type equations on the compact Riemannian manifold (M, g) with the Cauchy data u0 > 0 on M, where r ≥ 1, p > 1 and λ(t) is chosen to make the L2-norm of the solution u (or a power of u) constant. We show that the limit is an eigenfunction for the Laplacian operator. We use some tricky estimates through the Sobolev imbedding theorem and the Moser iteration method.
