In this paper, we analyze the dynamics of an $N$ particles system evolving according the gradient flow of an energy functional. The particle system is a consistent approximation of the Lagrangian formulation of a one parameter family of non-local drift-diffusion equations in one spatial dimension. We shall prove the global in time existence of the trajectories of the particles (under a sufficient condition on the initial distribution) and give two blow-up criteria. All these results are consequences of the competition between the discrete entropy and the discrete interaction energy. They are also consistent with the continuous setting, that in turn is a one dimension reformulation of the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel in high dimensions. |
