Supercluster states and phase transitions in aggregation-fragmentation processes
Wendy Otieno, Nikolai V. Brilliantov, P. L. Krapivsky
We study the evolution of aggregates triggered by collisions with monomers that either lead to the attachment of monomers or the break-up of aggregates into constituting monomers.…
Finite Size Effects in Addition and Chipping Processes
Roman R. Dyachenko, Sergey A. Matveev, P. L. Krapivsky
We investigate analytically and numerically a system of clusters evolving via collisions with clusters of minimal mass (monomers). Each collision either leads to the addition of th…
Steady oscillations in aggregation-fragmentation processes
N. V. Brilliantov, W. Otieno, S. A. Matveev +3
We report surprising steady oscillations in aggregation-fragmentation processes. Oscillating solutions are observed for the class of aggregation kernels …
Dynamic Space Packing
Rahul Dandekar, P. L. Krapivsky
Dynamic space packing (DSP) is a random process with sequential addition and removal of identical objects into space. In the lattice version, objects are particles occupying single…
Error-induced extinction in a multi-type critical birth-death process
Meritxell Brunet Guasch, P. L. Krapivsky, Tibor Antal
Extreme mutation rates in microbes and cancer cells can result in error-induced extinction (EEX), where every descendant cell eventually acquires a lethal mutation. In this work, w…
A renewal approach to configurational entropy in one dimension
P. L. Krapivsky, J. M. Luck
We introduce a novel approach, inspired from the theory of renewal processes, to determine the configurational entropy of ensembles of constrained configurations of particles on th…
