This contribution is concerned with the effective viscosity problem, that is, the homogenization of the steady Stokes system with a random array of rigid particles, for which the main difficulty is the treatment of close particles. Standard…
Flocculation is the process whereby particles (i.e., flocs) in suspension reversibly combine and separate. The process is widespread in soft matter and aerosol physics as well as environmental science and engineering. We consider a general…
We study the time dependence of the grain size distribution N(r,t) during crystallization of a d-dimensional solid. A partial differential equation including a source term for nuclei and a growth law for grains is solved analytically for…
We consider the classical Smoluchowski coagulation equation with a general frequency kernel. We show that there exists a natural deterministic solution expansion in the non-associative algebra generated by the convolution product of the…
Existence of mass-conserving self-similar solutions with a sufficiently small total mass is proved for a specific class of homogeneous coagulation and fragmentation coefficients. The proof combines a dynamical approach to construct such…
We establish a characterization of coagulation-fragmentation processes, such that the induced birth and death processes depicting the total number of groups at time $t\ge 0$ are time homogeneous. Based on this, we provide a characterization…
A hyperbolic integro-differential equation is considered, as a model problem, where the convolution kernel is assumed to be either smooth or no worse than weakly singular. Well-posedness of the problem is studied in the context of semigroup…
We take into account a coagulation model that simulates a distinct kind of dynamics. In this model, two particles collide to produce a single particle, but the resulting particle decreases in size, allowing each particle to be fully…
We study finite-time flocking for an infinite set of Cucker-Smale particles with sublinear velocity coupling under fixed and switching sender networks. For this, we use a component-wise diameter framework and exploit sub-linear dissipation…
We study solutions of a Euclidean weighted porous medium equation when the weight behaves at spacial infinity like $|x|^{-\gamma}$, for $\gamma\in [0,2)$, and is allowed to be singular at the origin. In particular we show local-in-time…
We study large deviations for some non-local parabolic type equations. We show that, under some assumptions on the non-local term, problems defined in a bounded domain converge with an exponential rate to the solution of the problem defined…
We study the problem of global exponential stabilization of original Burgers' equations and the Burgers' equation with nonlocal nonlinearities by controllers depending on finitely many parameters. It is shown that solutions of the…
A growth equation with a generalized conservation law characterized by an integral kernel is introduced. The equation contains the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang, Sun-Guo-Grant, and Molecular-Beam Epitaxy growth equations as special cases and allows…
We introduce and analyse a class of fragmentation-coalescence processes defined on finite systems of particles organised into clusters. Coalescent events merge multiple clusters simultaneously to form a single larger cluster, while…
In this article, the existence of global classical solutions to the discrete coagulation equations with collisional breakage is established for collisional kernel having linear growth whereas the uniqueness is shown under additional…
We study the large time behaviour of the mass (size) of particles described by the fragmentation equation with homogeneous breakup kernel. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of solutions to the unique…
We study a spatially inhomogeneous coagulation model that contains a transport term in the spatial variable. The transport term models the vertical motion of particles due to gravity, thereby incorporating their fall into the dynamics.…
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.…

Let $K=Z/pZ$ and let $A$ be a subset of $\GL_r(K)$ such that $<A>$ is solvable. We reduce the study of the growth of $A$ under the group operation to the nilpotent setting. Specifically we prove that either $A$ grows rapidly (meaning…
