The Keller-Segel system contains several parameters which cause numerous structures such as linear, degenerate and singular type of PDE. In particular, the degenerate type contains the unknown function as the coefficients breaking down uniform ellipticity, which makes the problem more difficult in comparison with the other types. The Keller-Segel system itself is characterized as the parabolic-parabolic and parabolic-elliptic both of provide us an important research theme. Indeed, we need to handle these types in accordance with the characteristic features of equations. In this talk, we shall bring a focus onto the parabolic-parabolic and parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel systems of the singular and degenerate types and show uniqueness of weak solutions in the class of Hoelder continuous functions.
