X Abstract

We construct a stochastic model for coagulation-fragmen- tation processes and analyze its convergence properties toward the solution of the deterministic coagulation-fragmentation equations with diffusion. The model can be described as follows: we approximate a domain &b.Omega; by cubic cells of size &b.epsi;, and consider particles of sizes 1,2,, <i>k</i>,, <i>N</i>. Inside each cell can occur one of the folllowing reactions: a particle of size <i>i</i> can collide with a particle of size <i>j</i> and form a new particle of size <i>i</i> + <i>j</i>, or a particle of size <i>i</i> can split into a particle of size <i>j</i> and a particle of size <i>i</i> - <i>j</i>. The diffusion is approximated by random walks performed between the cells by the <i>k</i>-fold clusters, <i>k</i> = 1, 2, , <i>N</i>. Under the hypothesis of bounded coagulation coefficients, we prove a result of convergence in probability toward the solution of the deterministic equations, by using the martingale characterization of the Markov process restated in a form corresponding to the mild semigroup formulation of the dynamics.
