In this paper we prove the existence of global classical solutions to continuous coagulation–fragmentation equations with unbounded coefficients under the sole assumption that the coagulation rate is dominated by a power of the fragmentation rate, thus improving upon a number of recent results by not requiring any polynomial growth bound for either rate. This is achieved by proving a new result on the analyticity of the fragmentation semigroup and then using its regularizing properties to prove the local and then, under a stronger assumption, the global classical solvability of the coagulation–fragmentation equation considered as a semilinear perturbation of the linear fragmentation equation. Furthermore, we show that weak solutions of the coagulation–fragmentation equation, obtained by the weak compactness method, coincide with the classical local in time solutions provided the latter exist.
