We study the complete probability distribution $\mathcal{P}\left(\bar{H},t\right)$ of the time-averaged height $\bar{H}=(1/t)\int_0^t h(x=0,t')\,dt'$ at point $x=0$ of an evolving 1+1 dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) interface…

We use the optimal fluctuation method to evaluate the short-time probability distribution $\mathcal{P}\left(H,L,t\right)$ of height at a single point, $H=h\left(x=0,t\right)$, of the evolving Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) interface…

We present a numerical study of the evolution of height distributions (HDs) obtained in interface growth models belonging to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class. The growth is done on an initially flat substrate. The HDs…

Elastic interfaces in quenched random media driven by external forces exhibit a continuous depinning phase transition between pinned and moving phases at a critical external force. Recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 175701 (2022)] has shown…

Stochastic motion of a point -- known as Brownian motion -- has many successful applications in science, thanks to its scale invariance and consequent universal features such as Gaussian fluctuations. In contrast, the stochastic motion of a…

We propose a mean field theory for interfaces growing according to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation in 1+1 dimensions. The mean field equations are formulated in terms of densities at different heights, taking surface tension and the…

The dynamic scaling of curved interfaces presents features that are strikingly different from those of the planar ones. Spherical surfaces above one dimension are flat because the noise is irrelevant in such cases. Kinetic roughening is…

Edwards--Wilkinson type models are studied in 1+1 dimensions and the time-dependent distribution, P_L(w^2,t), of the square of the width of an interface, w^2, is calculated for systems of size L. We find that, using a flat interface as an…
