We revisit the scaling theory of the Smoluchowski equation with special emphasis on the dimensional analysis to derive the scaling ansatz and to give an insightful foundation to it. It has long been argued that the homogeneity exponent…
In this article we study an extension of Smoluchowski's discrete coagulation equation, where particle in- and output takes place. This model is frequently used to describe aggregation processes in combination with sedimentation of clusters.…
Global solutions to the multicomponent Smoluchowski coagulation equation are constructed for measure-valued initial data with minimal assumptions on the moments. The framework is based on an abstract formulation of the Arzel\`a-Ascoli…
Motivated by the recent results of Andreis-Iyer-Magnanini (2023), we provide a short proof, revisiting the one of Escobedo-Mischler-Perthame (2002), that for a large class of coagulation kernels, any weak solution to the Smoluchowski…
We introduce a one-dimensional stochastic system where particles perform independent diffusions and interact through pairwise coagulation events, which occur at a nontrivial rate upon collision. Under appropriate conditions on the diffusion…
The coagulation (or aggregation) equation was introduced by Smoluchowski in 1916 to describe the clumping together of colloidal particles through diffusion, but has been used in many different contexts as diverse as physical chemistry,…
We consider Smoluchowski's equation with a homogeneous kernel of the form $a(x,y) = x^\alpha y ^\beta + x^\beta y^\alpha$ with $-1 < \alpha \leq \beta < 1$ and $\lambda := \alpha + \beta \in (-1,1)$. We first show that self-similar…
In this paper we study the fundamental solution of the equation obtained by the linearisation of the Smoluchowski coagulation equation with the multiplicative kernel $(x y)^{\lambda/2}$ with $\lambda\in (1, 2)$ around the steady state…
We construct a time-dependent solution to the Smoluchowski coagulation equation with a constant flux of dust particles entering through the boundary at zero. The dust is instantaneously converted into particles and flux solutions have…
We derive a satisfying rate of convergence of the Marcus-Lushnikov process toward the solution to Smoluchowski's coagulation equation. Our result applies to a class of homogeneous-like coagulation kernels with homogeneity degree ranging in…
The Smoluchowski coagulation equation (SCE) is a population balance model that describes the time evolution of cluster size distributions resulting from particle aggregation. Although it is formally a mass-conserving system, solutions may…
We demonstrate how many classes of Smoluchowski-type coagulation models can be realised as multiplicative Grassmannian flows and are therefore linearisable, and thus integrable in this sense. First, we prove that a general Smoluchowski-type…
In the present article we introduce a variant of Smoluchowski's coagulation equation with both position and velocity variables taking a kinetic viewpoint arising as the scaling limit of a system of second-order (microscopic) coagulating…
A notion of measure solution is formulated for a coagulation-diffusion equation, which is the natural counterpart of Smoluchowski's coagulation equation in a spatially inhomogeneous setting. Some general properties of such solutions are…
We study a model of mass-bearing coagulating planar Brownian particles. Coagulation is prone to occur when two particles become within a distance of order $\epsilon$. We assume that the initial number of particles is of the order of $| \log…
We introduce an extended Smoluchowski equation describing coagulation processes for which clusters of mass s grow between collisions with $ds/dt=As^\beta$. A physical example, dropwise condensation is provided, and its collision kernel K is…

Temperature-dependent Smoluchowski equations describe the ballistic agglomeration. In contrast to the standard Smoluchowski equations for the evolution of cluster densities with constant rate coefficients, the temperature-dependent…
We show that solutions to Smoluchowski's equation with a constant coagulation kernel and an initial datum with some regularity and exponentially decaying tail converge exponentially fast to a self-similar profile. This convergence holds in…
We consider in this work a model for aggregation, where the coalescing particles initially have a certain number of potential links (called arms) which are used to perform coagulations. There are two types of arms, male and female, and two…
