We characterize universal features of the sample-to-sample fluctuations of global geometrical observables, such as the area, width, length, and center-of-mass position, in random growing planar clusters. Our examples are taken from…

A family of exponential martingales of a stochastic Laplacian growth problem is proposed. Stochastic Laplacian growth describes a regularized interface dynamics in a two-fluid system, where the viscous fluid is incompressible at a large…

Symmetries play a conspicuous role in the large-scale behavior of critical systems. While in equilibrium they allow to classify asymptotics into different universality classes, out of equilibrium they can emerge, some times unexpectedly, as…
