The model can be regarded as a reinforced urn model with graph-based interactions. It is motivated by cooperative sequential adsorption, where adsorption rates at a site depend on the configuration of existing particles in the neighbourhood of that site. Our main result is that, with probability one, the growth process will eventually localise either at a single site, or at a pair of neighbouring sites.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-11-21T13:21:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "growth model", "interaction", "localisation", "long term behaviour", "random sequential allocation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 31, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
