Approach to self‐similarity in Smoluchowski's coagulation equations
Abstract We consider the approach to self‐similarity (or dynamical scaling) in Smoluchowski's equations of coagulation for the solvable kernels K ( x, y ) = 2, x + y and xy . In addition to the known self‐similar solutions with exponential tails, there are one‐parameter families of solutions with algebraic …
