We consider the equilibrium surface of the Random Average Process started from an inclined plane, as seen from the height of the origin, obtained in [Ferrari & Fontes, 1998], where its fluctuations were shown to be of order of the square…

We study the dynamics of a system of hard-core particles sliding downwards on a one dimensional fluctuating interface, which in a special case can be mapped to the problem of a passive scalar advected by a Burgers fluid. Driven by the…

The temporal evolution of equilibrium fluctuations for surface steps of monoatomic height is analyzed studying one-dimensional solid-on-solid models. Using Monte Carlo simulations, fluctuations due to periphery-diffusion (PD) as well as due…

We present a (heuristic) theoretical derivation for the scaling of the diffusion coefficient $D_f$ for fluctuating ``pulled'' fronts. In agreement with earlier numerical simulations, we find that as $N\to\infty$, $D_f$ approaches zero as…

Damping on an object generally depends on its conformation (shape size etc.). We consider the Langevin dynamics of a model system with a conformation dependent damping and generalize the fluctuation dissipation relation to fit in such a…

We impose the uniform probability measure on the set of all discrete Gelfand-Tsetlin patterns of depth $n$ with the particles on row $n$ in deterministic positions. These systems equivalently describe a broad class of random tilings models,…

Statistical analyses of finite sample distributions usually assume that fluctuations are self-averaging, i.e. that they are statistically similar in different regions of the given sample volume. By using the scale-length method, we test…
