Abstract
A set of deterministic continuum equations is proposed to represent diffusion-limited aggregation. A solution using a Green’s-function method gives growth very similar to discrete simulations. The growth equations have no external noise. The relationship to viscous fingering and other growth processes is explored.Keywords
