Internal Diffusion Limited Aggregation (IDLA) is a model that describes the growth of a random aggregate of particles from the inside out. Shellef proved that IDLA processes on supercritical percolation clusters of integer-lattices fill…
Irreversible diffusion limited cluster aggregation (DLCA) of hard spheres was simulated using Brownian cluster dynamics. Bound spheres were allowed to move freely within a specified range, but no bond breaking was allowed. The structure and…

We consider Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA) in a two-dimensional wedge. We prove that if the angle of the wedge is smaller than $\pi/4$, there is some $a>2$ such that almost surely, for all $R$ large enough, after time $R^a$ all new…
We introduce a lattice gas model of cluster growth via the diffusive aggregation of particles in a closed system obeying a local, deterministic, microscopically reversible dynamics. This model roughly corresponds to placing the irreversible…
In clustering we normally output one cluster variable for each datapoint. However it is not necessarily the case that there is only one way to partition a given dataset into cluster components. For example, one could cluster objects by…
A recently proposed theory for diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA), which models this system as a random branched growth process, is reviewed. Like DLA, this process is stochastic, and ensemble averaging is needed in order to define…

In the present note we analyze the one-dimensional multi-particle diffusion limited aggregation (MDLA) model: the initial number of particles at each positive integer site has Poisson distribution with mean $\mu$, independently of all other…
A connection between fractal dimensions of "turbulent facets" and fractal dimensions in diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) is shown. The theoretical correspondence is elucidated and an empirical support to the above claim is given.
We develop a general theory of transport-limited aggregation phenomena occurring on curved surfaces, based on stochastic iterated conformal maps and conformal projections to the complex plane. To illustrate the theory, we use stereographic…
Aggregation phenomena are ubiquitous in nature, encompassing out-of-equilibrium processes of fractal pattern formation, important in many areas of science and technology. Despite their simplicity, foundational models such as…
Using stochastic conformal mapping techniques we study the patterns emerging from Laplacian growth with a power-law decaying threshold for growth $R_N^{-\gamma}$ (where $R_N$ is the radius of the $N-$ particle cluster). For $\gamma > 1$ the…
We consider diffusion limited aggregation of particles of two different kinds. It is assumed that a particle of one kind may adhere only to another particle of the same kind. The particles aggregate on a linear substrate which consists of…
