Fluctuating interfaces subject to stochastic resetting

Statistical Mechanics 2014-06-04 v1

Abstract

We study one-dimensional fluctuating interfaces of length LL where the interface stochastically resets to a fixed initial profile at a constant rate rr. For finite rr in the limit LL \to \infty, the system settles into a nonequilibrium stationary state with non-Gaussian interface fluctuations, which we characterize analytically for the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang and Edwards-Wilkinson universality class. Our results are corroborated by numerical simulations. We also discuss the generality of our results for a fluctuating interface in a generic universality class.
