Abstract: We establish a hydrodynamical limit for the averaging process on the complete graph with N vertices, showing that, after a timescale of order N, the empirical distribution of opinions converges to a unique measure. Moreover, if the initial distribution is absolutely continuous concerning the Lebesgue measure, the limiting measure remains absolutely continuous and its density satisfies a non-diffusive differential equation, that resembles the Smoluchowski coagulation equation.
