Two solvable systems of coagulation equations with limited aggregations

We consider two simple models for the formation of polymers where at the initial time, each monomer has a certain number of potential links (called arms in the text) that are consumed when aggregations occur. Loosely speaking, this imposes restrictions on the number of aggregations. The dynamics of concentrations are governed by modifications of Smoluchowskis coagulation equations. Applying classical techniques based on generating functions, resolution of quasi-linear PDEs, and Lagrange inversion formula, we obtain explicit solutions to these non-linear systems of ODEs. We also discuss the asymptotic behavior of the solutions and point at some connexions with certain known solutions to Smoluchowskis coagulation equations with additive or multiplicative kernels.
