Abstract
We consider the Keller-Segel system of degenerate type (KS)$_m$ with $m > 1$ below. We establish a uniform estimate of $\partial_x^2 u^{m-1}$ from below. The corresponding estimate to the porous medium equation is well-known as an Aronson-Bénilan type. We apply our estimate to prove the optimal Hölder continuity of weak solutions of (KS)$_m$. In addition, we find that the set $D(t):=\{ x \in \mathbb{R}; u(x,t) > 0\}$ of positive region to the solution $u$ is monotonically non-decreasing with respect to $t$.
