Global classical solutions to the continuous coagulation equation with collisional breakage

Abstract

Existence and uniqueness of mass-conserving classical solutions to the continuous coagulation equation with collisional breakage are investigated for an unbounded class of collision kernels and a particular case of the distribution function. The distribution function may have a possibility to attain singularity at the origin. The proof of the existence result relies on the compactness method. Moreover, a uniqueness result is shown. In addition, it is observed that the uniqueness solution is mass-conserving.
