On a Class of Continuous Collision-Induced Breakage Equation
math.AP2026-05v1license
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 , while no growth restriction is imposed on the large-size factor . The qualitative behavior of the solutions depends crucially on the exponent near the origin. Sublinear growth corresponding to yields existence only on finite time intervals, whereas superlinear growth corresponding to ensures global-in-time existence.
