We first present very elementary relations between climate and aerosols. The we introduce the homogeneous coagulation equation as a simple model to describe systems of merging particles like polymers or aerosols. We next give a recent result about gelation of solutions. We end with some related open questions.
We study the global existence and space-time asymptotics of solutions for a class of nonlocal parabolic semilinear equations. Our models include the Nernst-Planck and Debye-Hückel drift-diffusion systems as well as parabolic-elliptic systems of chemotaxis. In the case of a model of self-gravitating particles, we also give a result on the finite time blow up of solutions with localized and oscillating complex-valued initial data, using a method due to S. Montgomery-Smith.
Results on the global existence and uniqueness of variational solutions to an elliptic-parabolic problem occurring in statistical mechanics are provided.
We study asymptotic behavior of radial solutions of a nonlocal Fokker-Planck equation describing the evolution of self-attracting particles. In particular, we consider stationary solutions in balls and in the whole space, self-similar solutions defined globally in time, blowing up self-similar solutions, and singularities of solutions that blow up in a finite time.
Radially symmetric solutions of a nonlocal Fokker-Planck equation describing the evolution of self-attracting particles in a bounded container are studied. Conditions ensuring either global-in-time existence of solutions or their finite time blow up are given.
