Our object is to formulate and analyze a physically plausible and mathematically sound model to better understand the phenomenon of clumping in colloid dispersions. Our model is stochastic but rigorously derived from a deterministic setup…
Background. The calculation of diffusion-controlled ligand binding rates is important for understanding enzyme mechanisms as well as designing enzyme inhibitors. We demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of a Lagrangian particle-based…

In this paper, we establish smoothness of moments of the solutions of discrete coagulation-diffusion systems. As key assumptions, we suppose that the coagulation coefficients grow at most sub-linearly and that the diffusion coefficients…

We study the long-time behaviour of the solutions to Smoluchowski coagulation equations with a source term of small clusters. The source drives the system out-of-equilibrium, leading to a rich range of different possible long-time…
We use the Chapman-Enskog method to derive the Smoluchowski equation from the Kramers equation in a high friction limit. We consider two main extensions of this problem: we take into account a uniform rotation of the background medium and…
Quantifying the interaction between a system of interest and its ambient conditions, the memory effect links the states of two distinct Hamiltonians: one for the target system and one for the environment. In this paper, we propose the…
We derive from the first principles new hydrodynamic equations -- Smoluchowski-Euler equations for aggregation kinetics in space-inhomogeneous fluids with fluxes. Starting from Boltzmann equations, we obtain microscopic expressions for…
Quantum gravity has long remained elusive from an observational standpoint. Developing effective cosmological models motivated by the fundamental aspects of quantum gravity is crucial for bridging theory with observations. One key aspect is…

Diffusion-limited reactions (DLR) are usually described within the Smoluchowski theory, which neglects interactions between the diffusing components. We propose a first extension of such frame- work that incorporates excluded-volume…
The Schr\"{o}dinger problem of deducing the microscopic dynamics from the input-output statistics data is known to admit a solution in terms of Markov diffusions. The uniqueness of solution is found linked to the natural boundaries…
The diffusion coefficient--a measure of dissipation, and the entropy--a measure of fluctuation are found to be intimately correlated in many physical systems. Unlike the fluctuation dissipation theorem in linear response theory, the…
