The scaling theory of irreversible aggregation is discussed in some detail. First, we review the general theory in the simplest case of binary reactions. We then extend consideration to ternary reactions, multispecies aggregation,…
The kinetic equations describing irreversible aggregation and the scaling approach developed to describe them in the limit of large times and large sizes are tersely reviewed. Next, a system is considered in which aggregates can only react…
We consider the mass-dependent aggregation process (k+1)X -> X, given a fixed number of unit mass particles in the initial state. One cluster is chosen proportional to its mass and is merged into one either with k-neighbors in one…
The one-dimensional reaction diffusion process AA->A and A0A->AAA is exactly solvable through the empty interval method if the diffusion rate equals the coagulation rate. Independently of the particle production rate, the model is always in…
We analyze asymptotic scaling properties of a model class of anomalous reaction-diffusion (ARD) equations. Numerical experiments show that solutions to these have, for large $t$, well defined scaling properties. We suggest a general…
We study long-time properties of reversible reaction-diffusion systems of type A + B <-> C by means of perturbation expansion in powers of 1/t (inverse of time). For the case of equal diffusion coefficients we present exact formulas for the…
We give a comprehensive rate equation description for the irreversible growth of aggregates by migration from small to large aggregates. For a homogeneous rate K(i;j) at which monomers migrate from aggregates of size i to those of size j,…
In a recent series of papers, an exact combinatorial solution was claimed for a variant of the so-called Marcus--Lushnikov model of aggregation. In this model, a finite number of aggregates, are initially assumed to be present in the form…
The aggregation of particles in the free molecular regime is determined approximately for situations with a high degree of translational energy equilibration. The mean particle sizes develop linearly in time. Scaling relations are used to…
We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of solutions of a class of nonlocal Fokker--Planck equations defined by nonsingular, heavy-tailed convolution kernels and characterised by a scaling parameter $\e\in(0,1]$ and a fractional index…
In this article, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the asymptotic behavior of Bell numbers, enhancing and unifying various results previously dispersed in the literature. We establish several explicit lower and upper bounds. The main…
We prove that a solution of an elliptic operator with periodic coefficients behaves on large scales like an analytic function, in the sense of approximation by polynomials with periodic corrections. Equivalently, the constants in the…
Irreversible aggregation is revisited in view of recent work on renormalization of complex networks. Its scaling laws and phase transitions are related to percolation transitions seen in the latter. We illustrate our points by giving the…
Reproducing complex phenomena with simple models marks our understanding of the phenomena themselves and this is what Jack Herring's work demonstrated multiple times. In that spirit, this work studies a turbulence shell model consisting of…
We report exact results for one-dimensional reaction-diffusion models A+A -> inert, A+A -> A, and A+B -> inert, where in the latter case like particles coagulate on encounters and move as clusters. Our study emphasized anisotropy of hopping…
We consider the scaling solutions of Smoluchowski's equation of irreversible aggregation, for a non gelling collision kernel. The scaling mass distribution f(s) diverges as s^{-tau} when s->0. tau is non trivial and could, until now, only…
Renormalization group calculations for fluctuation-dominated reaction-diffusion systems are generally in agreement with simulations and exact solutions. However, simulations of the single-species reactions 3A->(0,A,2A) at their upper…
We study the space-time concentration or blow-up asymptotics of radially decreasing solutions of the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system in the whole space or in a ball. We show that, for any solution in dimensions $3\le n\le 9$…
We establish the satisfiability threshold for random $k$-SAT for all $k\ge k_0$, with $k_0$ an absolute constant. That is, there exists a limiting density $\alpha_*(k)$ such that a random $k$-SAT formula of clause density $\alpha$ is with…
We study time series concerning rare events. The occurrence of a rare event is depicted as a jump of constant intensity always occurring in the same direction, thereby generating an asymmetric diffusion process. We consider the case where…
