We consider a random model of diffusion and coagulation. A large number of small particles are randomly scattered at an initial time. Each particle has some integer mass and moves in a Brownian motion whose diffusion rate is determined by…
We study analytically the intricate phase behavior of cross-linked $AB$ diblock copolymer melts, which can undergo two main phase transitions due to quenched random constraints: Gelation, i.e., spatially random localization of polymers…
In these expository notes, we describe some features of the multiplicative coalescent and its connection with random graphs and minimum spanning trees. We use Pitman's proof of Cayley's formula, which proceeds via a calculation of the…
We present a procedure to generate bipartite grids for simply connected domains in 2-D and 3-D of prescribed size and controlled regularity elements. The mesh elements $K$ of the triangulation satisfy $\zeta_{K} \leq C$ where $\zeta_{K}$ is…
Continuous variables multipartite entanglement is a key resource for quantum technologies. This works considers the multipartite entanglement generated in separated spatial modes of the same light beam by three different parametric sources:…
We consider the particle current in the asymmetric avalanche process on a ring. It is known to exhibit a transition from the intermittent to continuous flow at the critical density of particles. The exact expressions for the first two…
Formation of monodispersed colloidal particles is a complex process: nuclei, produced rapidly in a supersaturated solution, grow to nanosize primary particles, which then aggregate (coagulate) to form much larger final colloids. This paper…
Droplet coalescence is essential in a host of biological and industrial processes, involving complex systems as diverse as cellular aggregates, colloidal suspensions, and polymeric liquids. Classical solutions for the time evolution of…
For one-dimensional many-body systems interacting via the \textit{Coulomb force} and with \textit{arbitrary} external potential energy, we derive (\textit{i}) the \textit{node coalescence condition} for the wave function. This condition…
We consider two simple models for the formation of polymers where at the initial time, each monomer has a certain number of potential links (called arms in the text) that are consumed when aggregations occur. Loosely speaking, this imposes…
In this work, we present a general method to establish properties of multi-dimensional continuous-time Markov chains representing stochastic reaction networks. This method consists of grouping states together (via a partition of the state…
Droplet coalescence is a common phenomenon and plays an important role in multi-disciplinary applications. Previous studies mainly consider the coalescence of miscible liquid, even though the coalescence of immiscible droplets on a solid…
Take a continuous-time Galton-Watson tree. If the system survives until a large time $T$, then choose $k$ particles uniformly from those alive. What does the ancestral tree drawn out by these $k$ particles look like? Some special cases are…
We demonstrate an approach to solving the coagulation equation that involves using a finite number of moments of the particle size distribution. This approach is particularly useful when only general properties of the distribution, and…
The melting of a binary system of charged particles confined in a {\it quasi}-one-dimensional parabolic channel is studied through Monte Carlo simulations. At zero temperature the particles are ordered in parallel chains. The melting is…
Motivated by kinetically constrained interacting particle systems (KCM), we consider a reversible coalescing and branching simple exclusion process on a general finite graph $G=(V,E)$ dual to the biased voter model on $G$. Our main goal are…
We introduce a colored coalescent process which recovers random colored genealogical trees. Here a colored genealogical tree has its vertices colored black or white. Moving backward along the colored genealogical tree, the color of vertices…
This paper provides a new construction of \Lambda-coalescents called "measure division construction". This construction is pathwise and consists of dividing the characteristic measure \Lambda into several parts and adding them one by one to…
The process of coalescence of two identical liquid drops is simulated numerically in the framework of two essentially different mathematical models, and the results are compared with experimental data on the very early stages of the…
In this article we prove the existence of solutions to the singular coagulation equation with multifragmentation. We use weighted $L^1$-spaces to deal with the singularities and to obtain regular solutions. The Smoluchowski kernel is…
