Competition Between Self-birth and Catalyzed Death in Aggregation Growth with Catalysis Injection

We propose two irreversible aggregation growth models of aggregates of two distinct species (A and B) to study the interactions between virus aggregates and medicine efficacy aggregates in the virus-medicine cooperative evolution system. The A-species aggregates evolve driven by self monomer birth andB-species aggregate-catalyzed monomer death in model I and by self birth, catalyzed death, and self monomer exchange reactions in model II, while the catalyst B-species aggregates are assumed to be injected into the system sustainedly or at a periodic time-dependent rate. The kinetic behaviors of the A-species aggregates are investigated by the rate equation approach based on the mean-field theory with the self birth rate kernel I_A(K)=Ik, catalyzed death rate kernel J_AB(k)=Jk and self exchange rate kernel K_A(k,l)=Kkl. The kinetic behaviors of the A-species aggregates are mainly dominated by the competition between the two effects of the self birth (with the effective rate I) and the catalyzed death (with the effective rate JB₀), while the effects of the self exchanges of the A-species aggregates which appear in an effectiverate KA₀ play important roles in the cases of I>JB₀ and I=JB₀. The evolution behaviors of the total mass M^A(t)₁ and the total aggregate number M^A(t)₀ are obtained, and the aggregate size distribution a_k(t) of species A is found toapproach a generalized scaling form in the case of I ≧ JB₀ and a special modified scaling form in the case of I0. The periodical evolution of the B-monomers concentration plays an exponential form of the periodic modulation.     

Kinetic Behavior of Aggregation-Exchange Growth Process with Catalyzed-Birth

We propose an aggregation model of a two-species system to mimic the growth of cities' population and assets,in which irreversible coagulation reactions and exchange reactions occur between any two aggregates of the same species,and the monomer-birth reactions of one species occur by the catalysis of the other species.In the case with population-catalyzed birth of assets,the rate kernel of an asset aggregate Bκ of size k grows to become an aggregate Bκ 1through a monomer-birth catalyzed by a population aggregate Aj of size j is J(k,j) = Jkjλ.And in mutually catalyzed birth model,the birth rate kernels of population and assets are H(k,j) = Hkjη and J(k,j) = Jkjλ,respectively.The kinetics of the system is investigated based on the mean-field theory.In the model of population-catalyzed birth of assets,the long-time asymptotic behavior of the assets aggregate size distribution obeys the conventional or modified scaling form.In mutually catalyzed birth system,the asymptotic behaviors of population and assets obey the conventional scaling form in the case ofη =λ= 0,and they obey the modified scalingform in the case of η = 0,λ= 1.In the case of η = λ = 1,the total mass of population aggregates and that of asset aggregates both grow much faster than those in population-catalyzed birth of assets model,and they approaches to infinite values in finite time.     

Kinetic Behaviors of a Competitive Population and Fitness System in Exchange-Driven Growth

We proposed an aggregation model of two species aggregates of fitness and population to study the interaction between the two species in their exchange-driven processes of the same species by introducing the monomer birth of fitness catalyzed by the population, where the fitness aggregates perform self-death process and the population aggregates perform self-birth process. The kinetic behaviors of the aggregate size distributions of the fitness and population were analyzed by the rate equation approach with their exchange rate kernel K₁(k,j)=K₁kj and K₂(k,j)=K₂kj, the fitness aggregate's self-death rate kernel J₁(k)=J₁k, population aggregate's self-birth rate kernel J₂(k)=J₂k and population-catalyzed fitness birth rate kernel I(k,j)=Ikj^u. The kinetic behavior of the fitness was found depending crucially on the parameter u, which reflects the dependence of the population-catalyzed fitness birth rate on the size of the catalyst (population) aggregate. (i) In the u ≤0 case, the effect of catalyzed-birth of fitness is rather weak and the exchange-driven aggregation and self-death of the fitness dominate the process, and the fitness aggregate size distribution a_k(t) does not have scale form. (ii) When u>0, the effect of the population-catalyzed birth of fitness gets strong enough, and the catalyzed-birth and self-death of the fitness aggregates, together with the self-birth of the population aggregates dominate the evolution process of the fitness aggregates. The aggregate size distribution a_k(t) approaches a generalized scaling form.     

Kinetic Behaviors of Catalysis-Driven Growth of Three-Species Aggregates on Base of Exchange-Driven Aggregations

We propose a solvable aggregation model to mimic the evolution of population A, asset B, and the quantifiable resource C in a society. In this system, the population and asset aggregates themselves grow through selfexchanges with the rate kernels Kl（k,j） = K1kj and K2（h,j） = K2kj, respectively. The actions of the population and asset aggregations on the aggregation evolution of resource aggregates are described by the population-catalyzed monomer death of resource aggregates and asset-catalyzed monomer birth of resource aggregates with the rate kerne/s J1（k,j）=J1k and J2（k,j） = J2k, respectively. Meanwhile, the asset and resource aggregates conjunctly catalyze the monomer birth of population aggregates with the rate kernel I1 （k,i,j） = I1ki^μjη, and population and resource aggregates conjunctly catalyze the monomer birth of asset aggregates with the rate kernel /2（k, i, j） = I2ki^νj^η. The kinetic behaviors of species A, B, and C are investigated by means of the mean-field rate equation approach. The effects of the population-catalyzed death and asset-catalyzed birth on the evolution of resource aggregates based on the self-exchanges of population and asset appear in effective forms. The coefficients of the effective population-catalyzed death and the asset-catalyzed birth are expressed as J1e = J1/K1 and J2e= J2/K2, respectively. The aggregate size distribution of C species is found to be crucially dominated by the competition between the effective death and the effective birth. It satisfies the conventional scaling form, generalized scaling form, and modified scaling form in the cases of J1e〈J2e, J1e=J2e, and J1e〉J2e, respectively. Meanwhile, we also find the aggregate size distributions of populations and assets both fall into two distinct categories for different parameters μ,ν, and η： （i） When μ=ν=η=0 and μ=ν=η=1, the population and asset aggregates obey the generalized scaling forms; and （ii） When μ=ν=1,η=0, and μ=ν=η=1, the population and asset aggregates experience gelation transitions at finite times and the scaling forms break down.     

Solvable Catalyzed Birth-Death-Exchange Competition Model of Three Species

A competition model of three species in exchange-driven aggregation growth is proposed. In the model, three distinct aggregates grow by exchange of monomers and in parallel, birth of species A is catalyzed by species B and death of species A is catalyzed by species C. The rates for both catalysis processes are proportional to kj^υ and kj^ω respectively, where υ(ω) is a parameter reflecting the dependence of the catalysis reaction rate of birth (death) on the catalyst aggregate's size. The kinetic evolution behaviors of the three species are investigated by the rate equation approach based on the mean-field theory. The form of the aggregate size distribution ofA-species a_k(t) is found to be dependent crucially on the two catalysis rate kernel parameters. The results show that (i) in case of υ ≤ 0, the form of a_k(t) mainly depends on the competition between self-exchange of species A andspecies-C-catalyzed death of species A; (ii) in case of υ>0, the form of a_k(t) mainly depends on the competition between species-B-catalyzed birth of species A and species-C-catalyzed death of species A.     

Kinetics of Infection-Driven Growth Model with Birth and Death

We propose a two-species infection model, in which an infected aggregate can gain one monomer from a healthy one due to infection when they meet together. Moreover, both the healthy and infected aggregates may lose one monomer because of self-death, but a healthy aggregate can spontaneously yield a new monomer. Consider a simple system in which the birth/death rates are directly proportional to the aggregate size, namely, the birth and death rates of the healthy aggregate of size k are J₁k and J₂k while the self-death rate of the infected aggregate of size k is J₃k. We then investigate the kinetics of such a system by means of rate equation approach. For the J₁>J₂ case, the aggregate size distribution of either species approaches the generalized scaling form and the typical size of either species increases wavily at large times. For the J₁=J₂ case, the size distribution of healthy aggregates approaches the generalized scaling form while that of infected aggregates satisfies the modified scaling form. For the J₁<J₂ case, the size distribution of healthy aggregates satisfies the modified scaling form, but that of infected aggregates does not scale.     

Kinetics of catalytically activated duplication in aggregation growth

We propose a catalytically activated duplication model to mimic the coagulation and duplication of the DNA polymer system under the catalysis of the primer RNA. In the model, two aggregates of the same species can coagulate themselves and a DNA aggregate of any size can yield a new monomer or double itself with the help of RNA aggregates. By employing the mean-field rate equation approach we analytically investigate the evolution behaviour of the system. For the system with catalysis-driven monomer duplications, the aggregate size distribution of DNA polymers a_k(t) always follows a power law in size in the long-time limit, and it decreases with time or approaches a time-independent steady-state form in the case of the duplication rate independent of the size of the mother aggregates, while it increases with time increasing in the case of the duplication rate proportional to the size of the mother aggregates. For the system with complete catalysis-driven duplications, the aggregate size distribution a_k(t) approaches a generalized or modified scaling form.     

Novel Biased Aggregation-Annihilation Model

We propose a novel two-species aggregation-annihilation model,in which irreversible aggregation reactions occur between any two aggregates of the same species and biased annihilations occur simultaneously between two different species.The kinetic scaling behavior of the model is then analytically investigated by means of the mean-field rate equation.For the system without the self-aggregation of the un-annihilated species,the aggregate size distribution of the annihilated species always approaches a modified scaling form and vanishes finally; while for the system with the self-aggregation of the un-annihilated species,its scaling behavior depends crucially on t,he details of the rate kernels.Moreover,the results also exhibit that both species are conserved together in some cases,while only the un-annihilated species survives finally in other cases.     

Kinetics of a Migration-Driven Aggregation-Fragmentation Process

We propose a reversible model of the migration-driven aggregation-fragmentation process with the sym-metric migration rate kernels K(k;j) = K‘(k;j) = λkjv and the constant aggregation rates I1, I2 and fragmentationrates J1, J2. Based on the mean-field theory, we investigate the evolution behavior of the aggregate size distributions inseveral cases with different values of index v. We find that the fragmentation reaction plays a more important role in the kinetic behaviors of the system than the aggregation and migration. When J1 = 0 and J2 = 0, the aggregate sizedistributions ak(t) and bk(t) obey the conventional scaling law, while when J1 ＞ 0 and J2 ＞ 0, they obey the modifiedscaling law with an exponential scaling function. The total mass of either species remains conserved.     

Dynamic scaling of migration-driven aggregate growth

We study the kinetic behaviour of the growth of aggregates driven by reversible migration between any two aggregates. For a simple model with the migration rate K(i;j)=K′(i;j)∝i^uj^v at which the monomers migrate from the aggregates of size i to those of size j, we find that the aggregate size distribution in the system with u+v≤3 and u<2 approaches a conventional scaling form, which reduces to the Smoluchovski form in the u=1 case. On the other hand, for the system with u<2, the average aggregate size S(t) grows exponentially in the u+v=3 case and as (tlnt)^{1/(5-2u)} in another special case of v=u-2. Moreover, this typical size S(t) grows as t^{1/(3-u-v)} in the general u-2相似文献   

Solvable Aggregation-Migration-Annihilation Processes of a Multispecies System

An aggregation-migration-annihilation model is proposed for a two-species-group system. In the system,aggregation reactions occur between any two aggregates of the same species and migration reactions between two different species in the same group and joint annihilation reactions between two species from different groups. The kinetics of the system is then investigated in the framework of the mean-field theory. It is found that the scaling solutions of the aggregate size distributions depend crucially on the ratios of the equivalent aggregation rates of species groups to the annihilation rates. Each species always scales according to a conventional or modified scaling form; moreover, the governing scaling exponents are nonuniversal and dependent on the reaction details for most cases.     

Kinetic evolutionary behavior of catalysis-select migration

We propose a catalysis-select migration driven evolution model of two-species(A-and B-species) aggregates,where one unit of species A migrates to species B under the catalysts of species C,while under the catalysts of species D the reaction will become one unit of species B migrating to species A.Meanwhile the catalyst aggregates of species C perform self-coagulation,as do the species D aggregates.We study this catalysis-select migration driven kinetic aggregation phenomena using the generalized Smoluchowski rate equation approach with C species catalysis-select migration rate kernel K(k;i,j) = Kkij and D species catalysis-select migration rate kernel J(k;i,j) = Jkij.The kinetic evolution behaviour is found to be dominated by the competition between the catalysis-select immigration and emigration,in which the competition is between JD0 and KC0(D0 and C0 are the initial numbers of the monomers of species D and C,respectively).When JD0 KC0 > 0,the aggregate size distribution of species A satisfies the conventional scaling form and that of species B satisfies a modified scaling form.And in the case of JD0 KC0 < 0,species A and B exchange their aggregate size distributions as in the above JD0 KC0 > 0 case.     

Scaling in Rate-Changeable Birth and Death Processes with Random Removals

We propose a monomer birth-death model with random removals, in which an aggregate of size k can produce a new monomer at a time-dependent rate I（t）k or lose one monomer at a rate J（t）k, and with a probability P（t） an aggregate of any size is randomly removed. We then anedytically investigate the kinetic evolution of the model by means of the rate equation. The results show that the scaling behavior of the aggregate size distribution is dependent crucially on the net birth rate I（t） - J（t） as well as the birth rate I（t）. The aggregate size distribution can approach a standard or modified scaling form in some cases, but it may take a scale-free form in other cases. Moreover, the species can survive finally only if either I（t） - J（t） ≥ P（t） or [J（t） ＋ P（t） - I（t）]t ≈ 0 at t ≥ 1; otherwise, it will become extinct.     

Analytical Results of a Two-Species Predator-Prey Model

We propose a sequential monomer reaction model for a two-species predator-prey system, in which the aggregates of either species can spontaneously produce or lose one monomer and meanwhile, a type-B aggregate can prey upon one monomer of a type-A aggregate when they meet. Using the mean-field rate equation approach, we analytically investigate the kinetic behavior of the system. The results show that the evolution of the system depends crucially on the details of the rate kernels. The aggregate size distribution of either species approaches the conventional or modified scaling form in most cases. Moreover, the total size of either species grows exponentially with time in some cases and asymptotically retains a constant quantity in other cases, while it decays with time and vanishes finally in the rest cases.     

Kinetics of Catalysis-Driven Aggregation Processes with Sequential Input of Catalyst

We investigate the kinetic behavior of a two-species catalysis-driven aggregation model, in which coagulation of species A occurs only with the help of species B. We suppose the monomers of species B are stable and cannot selfcoagulate in reaction processes. Meanwhile, the monomers are continuously injected into the system. The model with a constant rate kernel is investigated by means of the mean-field rate equation. We show that the Mneties of the system depends crucially on the details of the input term. The injection rate of species B is assumed to take the given time- dependent form K（t） -t^λ, and the sealing solution of the duster size distribution is then investigated analytically. It is found that the cluster size distribution can satisfy the conventional or modified scaling form in most cases.     

Kinetic Behavior of Exchange-Driven Growth with Catalyzed-Birth Processes

Two catalyzed-birth models of n-species （n ≥ 2） aggregates with exchange-driven growth processes are proposed and compared. In the first one, the exchange reaction occurs between any two aggregates Ak^m and Af^m of the same species with the rate kernels Km（k,j）= Kmkj （m = 1, 2,... ,n, n ≥ 2）, and aggregates of A^n species catalyze a monomer-birth of A^l species （l = 1, 2 , n - 1） with the catalysis rate kernel Jl（k,j） -Jlkj^v. The kinetic behaviors are investigated by means of the mean-field theory. We find that the evolution behavior of aggregate-size distribution ak^l（t） of A^l species depends crucially on the value of the catalysis rate parameter v： （i） ak^l（t） obeys the conventional scaling law in the case of v ≤ 0, （ii） ak^l（t） satisfies a modified scaling form in the case of v 〉 0. In the second model, the mechanism of monomer-birth of An-species catalyzed by A^l species is added on the basis of the first model, that is, the aggregates of A^l and A^n species catalyze each other to cause monomer-birth. The kinetic behaviors of A^l and A^n species are found to fall into two categories for the different v： （i） growth obeying conventional scaling form with v ≤ 0, （ii） gelling at finite time with v 〉 0.
