Advection-diffusion equations with density constraints

In the spirit of the macroscopic crowd motion models with hard congestion (i.e. a strong density constraint $\rho\leq 1$) introduced by Maury {\it et al.} some years ago, we analyze a variant of the same models where diffusion of the agents is also taken into account. From the modeling point of view, this means that individuals try to follow a given spontaneous velocity, but are subject to a Brownian diffusion, and have to adapt to a density constraint which introduces a pressure term affecting the movement. From the PDE point of view, this corresponds to a modified Fokker-Planck equation, with an additional gradient of a pressure (only living in the saturated zone $\{\rho=1\}$) in the drift. The paper proves existence and some estimates, based on optimal transport techniques.
Comment: Accepted paper to the journal Analysis & PDE. The title of our paper has changed (originally it was: "A diffusive model for macroscopic crowd motion with density constraints") according to a referee's suggestion
