We aim to provide historical context, key literature, and main ideas in the field. We start by discussing the modelling and famous particular cases: Heat equation, Fokker-Plank, Porous medium, Keller-Segel, Chapman-Rubinstein-Schatzman, Newtonian vortex, Caffarelli-V\\'azquez, McKean-Vlasov, Kuramoto, and one-layer neural networks. In Section 4 we present the well-posedness frameworks given as PDEs in Sobolev spaces, and gradient-flow in Wasserstein. Then we discuss the asymptotic behaviour in time, for which we need to understand minimisers of a free energy. We then present some numerical methods which have been developed. We conclude the paper mentioning some related problems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-09-24T18:10:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "aggregation-diffusion equations", "beginners guide", "one-layer neural networks", "main ideas", "heat equation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
