The Liouville equation is a semi-linear elliptic equation of exponential non-linearity. Its non-local version is a steady state of the Keller-Segel equation representing the distribution of living cells, such as slime molds. I will represent an extension of this equation to multi-agent systems and discuss some associated critical phenomena, and recent results with Debabrata Karmakar on the parabolic Keller segel system and its asymptotics in both critical and non-critical cases.
