A differential inequality for the quantity ∫s0u∗(t,σ)dσ, where u∗ is the decreasing rearrangement of the solution u(t,⋅) with respect to the spatial variable, is obtained. As a consequence, they obtain e.g. Lp-bounds of the solution (u,v) on R2 and global-in-time existence of solutions under the condition αχ∫R2u0<8π. This result is sharp. It is also proved that if u0 is radially symmetric and αχ∫R2u0>8π, then the solution (u,v) blows up in a finite time. Compared to the previous work of Díaz Díaz and Nagai [Adv. Math. Sci. Appl. 5 (1995), no. 2, 659--680; MR1361010 (96j:35246)], where this problem has been considered on bounded domains of RN, there are some additional technical difficulties connected with the regularity of the derivative ∂u∗/∂t.engSymmetrization techniques on unbounded domains: Application to a chemotaxis system on R-Njournal articlehttp://zv4fy5pr5l.scholar.serialssolutions.com/?sid=google&auinit=JI&aulast=Diaz&atitle=Symmetrization+Techniques+on+Unbounded+Domains:+Application+to+a+Chemotaxis+System+on+UN&title=Journal+of+Differential+Equations&volume=145&issue=1&date=1998&spage=156http://www.sciencedirect.com/restricted access517.518.28weighted monotone rearrangementmeasure space applicationrelative rearrangementregularity.Análisis funcional y teoría de operadores
