We study the simplest irreversible ballistically-controlled reaction, whereby particles having an initial continuous velocity distribution annihilate upon colliding. In the framework of the Boltzmann equation, expressions for the exponents…

We introduce an autocatalytic aggregation model in which the rate at which two clusters merge to form a cluster is controlled by the presence of a third "catalytic" cluster whose mass must equal to the mass of one of the reaction partners.…

We investigate the quantum reaction-diffusion dynamics of fermionic particles which coherently hop in a one-dimensional lattice and undergo annihilation reactions. The latter are modelled as dissipative processes which involve losses of…

Models of reaction diffusion processes usually employ discrete lattice models with particles interacting at the same site, resulting in localized reactions in the continuum limit. Here, various non-local interactions are considered, and two…

We study the global existence and uniform-in-time bounds of classical solutions in all dimensions to reaction-diffusion systems dissipating mass. By utilizing the duality method and the regularization of the heat operator, we show that if…

In this paper we consider the stochastic dynamics of a finite system of particles in a finite volume (Kac-like particle system) which annihilate with probability $\alpha \in (0,1)$ or collide elastically with probability $1-\alpha$. We…

Open quantum systems can host dark or subradiant states whose decay is highly suppressed. While these states have been extensively studied in the few-excitation regime, their impact on the many-body dynamics remains largely unexplored.…

We consider the quantum nonequilibrium dynamics of systems where fermionic particles coherently hop on a one-dimensional lattice and are subject to dissipative processes analogous to those of classical reaction-diffusion models. Particles…
