We report on the first exact solution of the KPZ equation in one dimension, with an initial condition which physically corresponds to the motion of a macroscopically curved height profile. The solution provides a determinantal formula for…
In its original version the KPZ equation models the dynamics of an interface bordering a stable phase against a metastable one. Over past years the corresponding two-dimensional field theory has been applied to models with different…

The main goal of this paper is to prove existence and non-existence results for deterministic Kardar-Parisi-Zhang type equations involving non-local "gradient terms". More precisely, let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, $N \geq 2$, be a…
We address surface gradient flows which allow for energy dissipation by evolving the surface and a scalar quantity on it, simultaneously. A proper choice of the time derivative and the gauge of surface independence guarantees energy…
