We consider a size-structured model describing a population of cells proliferating by division. Each cell contain a quantity of toxicity which grows linearly according to a constant growth rate α. At division, the cells divide at a constant rate R and share their content between the two daughter cells into fractions Γ and 1-Γ where Γ has a symmetric density h on [0,1], since the daughter cells are exchangeable. We describe the cell population by a random measure and observe the cells on the time interval [0,T] with fixed T. We address here the problem of estimating the division kernel h (or fragmentation kernel) when the division tree is completely observed. An adaptive estimator of h is constructed based on a kernel function K with a fully data-driven bandwidth selection method. We obtain an oracle inequality and an exponential convergence rate, for which optimality is considered.
