On a Class of Continuous Collision-Induced Breakage Equation

Abstract

In this work, we establish the existence of mass-conserving weak solutions to a nonlinear collision-induced breakage equation in which binary collisions may trigger particle breakup. The result is proved for a class of product-type collision kernels whose small-size behavior is controlled by a power-law function of the form ω0(x)A1x\omega_0(x)\le A_1\,x^\ell, while no growth restriction is imposed on the large-size factor ω\omega_\infty. The qualitative behavior of the solutions depends crucially on the exponent \ell near the origin. Sublinear growth corresponding to <12\ell<\tfrac12 yields existence only on finite time intervals, whereas superlinear growth corresponding to >12\ell>\tfrac12 ensures global-in-time existence.
