Shrinkage of large particles, either through depolymerisation (i.e. progressive shortening) or through fragmentation (breakage into smaller pieces) may be modelled by discrete equations, of Becker-D\''oring type, or by continuous ones. In…
Polymer models are a widely used tool to study the prebiotic formation of metabolism at the origins of life. Counts of the number of reactions in these models are often crucial in probabilistic arguments concerning the emergence of…

Self-assembly of proteins is a biological phenomenon which gives rise to spontaneous formation of amyloid fibrils or polymers. The starting point of this phase, called nucleation exhibits an important variability among replicated…

Dimerization and subsequent aggregation of polymers and biopolymers often occur under nonequilibrium conditions. When the initial state of the polymer is not collapsed or the final folded native state, the dynamics of dimerization can…

Blind inverse problems arise in many experimental settings where both the signal of interest and the forward operator are (partially) unknown. In this context, methods developed for the non-blind case cannot be adapted in a straightforward…
Physical models often contain unknown functions and relations. In order to gain more insights into the nature of physical processes, these unknown functions have to be identified or reconstructed. Mathematically, we can formulate this…
