A Particle System with Explosions: Law of Large Numbers for the Density of Particles and the Blow-Up Time

Consider a system of independent random walks in the discrete torus with creation-annihilation of particles and possible explosion of the total number of particles in finite time. Rescaling space and rates for diffusion/creation/annihilation of particles, we obtain a strong law of large numbers for...

Sumario:Consider a system of independent random walks in the discrete torus with creation-annihilation of particles and possible explosion of the total number of particles in finite time. Rescaling space and rates for diffusion/creation/annihilation of particles, we obtain a strong law of large numbers for the density of particles in the supremum norm. The limiting object is a classical solution to the semilinear heat equation ∂ tu=∂ xxu+f(u). If f(u)=u p, 1<p≤3, we also obtain a law of large numbers for the explosion time. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media New York.
