Gelation in input-driven aggregation (2404.01032v1)

Published 1 Apr 2024 in cond-mat.stat-mech, cs.NA, math.CA, math.DS, and math.NA

Abstract: We investigate irreversible aggregation processes driven by a source of small mass clusters. In the spatially homogeneous situation, a well-mixed system is consists of clusters of various masses whose concentrations evolve according to an infinite system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. We focus on the cluster mass distribution in the long time limit. An input-driven aggregation with rates proportional to the product of merging partners undergoes a percolation transition. We examine this process analytically and numerically. There are two theoretical schemes and two natural ways of numerical integration on the level of a truncated system with a finite number of equations. After the percolation transition, the behavior depends on the adopted approach: The giant component quickly engulfs the entire system (Flory approach), or a non-trivial stationary mass distribution emerges (Stockmayer approach). We also outline generalization to ternary aggregation.
