Abstract(s)

We give an overview of the mathematical literature on the coagulation-like equations, from an analytic deterministic perspective. In Section 1 we present the coagulation type equations more commonly encountered in the scientific and mathematical literature and provide a brief historical overview of relevant works. In Section 2 we present results about existence and uniqueness of solutions in some of those systems, namely the discrete Smoluchowski and coagulation-fragmentation: we start by a brief description of the functional spaces, and then review the results on existence of solutions with a brief description of the main ideas of the proofs. This part closes with the consideration of uniqueness results. In Sections 3 and 4 we are concerned with several aspects of the solutions behaviour.We pay special attention to the long time convergence to equilibria, self-similar behaviour, and density conservation or lack thereof.
