We consider mass-conserving self-similar solutions for Smoluchowski's coagulation equation with kernel $K(\xi,\eta)= (\xi \eta)^{\lambda}$ with $\lambda \in (0,1/2)$. It is known that such self-similar solutions $g(x)$ satisfy that…

We study the long-time behaviour of the solutions to Smoluchowski coagulation equations with a source term of small clusters. The source drives the system out-of-equilibrium, leading to a rich range of different possible long-time…

We develop a unified approach to universality of local scaling limits for eigenvalues of random normal matrices, or equivalently for planar Coulomb gases at inverse temperature $\beta=2$. The approach is direct in that it does not rely on…

We prove uniform bounds on moments X_a = \sum_{m}{m^a f_m(x,t)} of the Smoluchowski coagulation equations with diffusion, valid in any dimension. If the collision propensities \alpha(n,m) of mass n and mass m particles grow more slowly than…
