%0 Journal Article %T Expected Coalescence Time for a Nonuniform Allocation Process %A John K. McSweeney %A Boris G. Pittel %J Mathematics %D 2008 %I arXiv %X We give an asymptotic expression for the expected coalescence time for a non-uniform balls-into-boxes allocation model. Connections to coalescent processes in population biology and computer science are discussed. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0809.4233v2
