Summary

In this article, we investigate a hybrid discrete–continuous coagulation and fragmentation model employing the strongly continuous semigroups theory on operators. Under the appropriate assumptions on the coagulation and fragmentation kernels, we establish the global existence and uniqueness of solutions. This extends similar results obtained in earlier investigations for the pure hybrid discrete–continuous fragmentation model.
