We study a random aggregation process involving rectangular clusters. In each aggregation event, two rectangles are chosen at random and if they have a compatible side, either vertical or horizontal, they merge along that side to form a…

Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA) is a model of fractal growth that was introduced in 1981 and had since attained a paradigmatic status due to its simplicity and its underlying role for a variety of pattern forming processes. Despite…
