Abstract: We consider a self-similar fragmentation process in which the generic particle of size x is replaced at probability rate xalpha, by its offspring made of smaller particles, where alpha is some positive parameter. The total of offspring sizes may be both larger or smaller than x with positive probability. We show that under certain conditions the typical size in the ensemble is of the order t1/alpha and that the empirical distribution of sizes converges to a random limit which we characterise in terms of the reproduction law.
