A simple model of ballistic aggregation and fragmentation is proposed. The model is characterized by two energy thresholds, Eagg and Efrag, which demarcate different types of impacts: If the kinetic energy of the relative motion of a…

We compute the critical density of collapse for spherically symmetric overdensities in a class of f(R) modified gravity models. For the first time we evolve the Einstein, scalar field and non-linear fluid equations, making the minimal…
On a compact Riemannian manifold (V_{m},g), we consider the second order positive operator L_{\epsilon} = \epsilon\Delta_{g} +(b,\nabla) +c, where -\Delta_{g} is the Laplace-Beltrami operator and b is a Morse-Smale (MS) field, \epsilon a…

Systems of interacting trajectories were recently studied in~\cite{HGSTW24}. Such a system of $[0,1]$-valued piecewise linear trajectories arises as a scaling limit of the system of logarithmic subpopulation sizes in a population-genetic…
We introduce an aggregation process based on \emph{templating}, where a specified number of constituent clusters must assemble on a larger aggregate, which serves as a scaffold, for a reaction to occur. A simple example is a dimer scaffold,…
In this paper we analyse the behaviour of a pile-up of vertically periodic walls of edge dislocations at an obstacle, represented by a locked dislocation wall. Starting from a continuum non-local energy $E_\gamma$ modelling the…
We investigate the gas mass function of clusters of galaxies to measure the density fluctuation spectrum on cluster scales. The baryon abundance confined in rich clusters is computed from the gas mass function and compared with the mean…
We investigate some important physical aspects of a recently presented interior solution for the Kerr metric. It is shown that, as in the spherically symmetric case, there is a specific limit for the maximal value of the surface potential…
One of the principal difficulties in stochastic homogenization is transferring quantitative ergodic information from the coefficients to the solutions, since the latter are nonlocal functions of the former. In this paper, we address this…
We consider a class of stochastic kinetic equations, depending on two time scale separation parameters $\epsilon$ and $\delta$: the evolution equation contains singular terms with respect to $\epsilon$, and is driven by a fast ergodic…
Infinitely many particles of two types ("plus" and "minus") jump randomly along the one-dimensional lattice $\mathbf{Z}_{\varepsilon}=\varepsilon\mathbf{Z}$. Annihillations occur when two particles of different time occupy the same site.…
We observe never-ending oscillations in systems undergoing aggregation and collision-controlled shattering. Specifically, we investigate aggregation-shattering processes with aggregation kernels K_{i,j} = (i/j)^a+(j/i)^a and shattering…
Collapse, or a gravitational-like phase transition is studied in a microcanonical ensemble of particles with an attractive $1/r^{\alpha}$ potential. A mean field continuous integral equation is used to determine a saddle-point density…
We develop the large $D$ limit of general relativity for spherically symmetric scalar fields in both asymptotically flat and asymptotically anti-de Sitter spaces. The leading order equations in the $1/D$ expansion can be solved…
We study a random circuit model of constrained fracton dynamics, in which particles on a one-dimensional lattice undergo random local motion subject to both charge and dipole moment conservation. The configuration space of this system…
The growth of an elastic film adhered to a confining substrate might lead to the formation of delimitation blisters. Many results have been derived when the substrate is flat. The equilibrium shapes, beyond small deformations, are…
We study a one dimensional model of gravitational instability in an Einstein-de Sitter universe. Scaling in both space and time results in an autonomous set of coupled Poisson-Vlasov equations for the field and phase space density, and the…
The model of binary aggregation with constant kernel is subjected to stochastic resetting: aggregates of any size explode into monomers at independent stochastic times. These resetting times are Poisson distributed, and the rate of the…
