We assess the dependence on substrate dimensionality of the asymptotic scaling behavior of a whole family of equations that feature the basic symmetries of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation. Even for cases in which, as expected from…
We relate the asymptotic representation theory of $SL(d,\mathbb{Z}_p)$ and the singularities of the moduli space of $SL(d)$-local systems on a smooth projective curve, proving new theorems about both. Regarding the former, we prove that,…
The scaling behavior of cyclical surface growth (e.g. deposition/desorption), with the number of cycles n, is investigated. The roughness of surfaces grown by two linear primary processes follows a scaling behavior with asymptotic exponents…
We study the dynamics of a growing crystalline facet where the growth mechanism is controlled by the geometry of the local curvature. A continuum model, in (2+1) dimensions, is developed in analogy with the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) model…
Take N sites distributed randomly and uniformly on a smooth closed surface. We express the expected distance <D_k(N)> from an arbitrary point on the surface to its kth-nearest neighboring site, in terms of the function A(l) giving the area…
Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) is now a well-established method for simulating soft matter systems. However, its applicability was recently questioned because some investigations showed an upper coarse-graining limit that would prevent…

Using a non-perturbative functional method, where the quantum fluctuations are gradually set up,it is shown that the interaction of a N=1 Wess-Zumino model in 2+1 dimensions does not get renormalized. This result is valid in the framework…
We present a unifying, consistent, finite-size-scaling picture for percolation theory bringing it into the framework of a general, renormalization-group-based, scaling scheme for systems above their upper critical dimensions $d_c$.…
We consider a large class of $1+1$-dimensional continuous interface growth models and we show that, in both the weakly asymmetric and the intermediate disorder regimes, these models converge to Hopf-Cole solutions to the KPZ equation.
We introduce a model that simulates a kinetic roughening process with two kinds of particles: one follows the ballistic deposition (BD) kinetic and, the other, the restricted solid-on-solid (KK) kinetic. Both of these kinetics are in the…
Inspired by the physics of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) a simplified coupled Burgers-like model in one dimension (1d), a generalization of the Burgers model to coupled degrees of freedom, is proposed to describe 1dMHD. In addition to MHD,…

Particle-based shape modeling (PSM) is a family of approaches that automatically quantifies shape variability across anatomical cohorts by positioning particles (pseudo landmarks) on shape surfaces in a consistent configuration. Recent…
We propose a novel approach to continuum modelling of dynamics of crystal surfaces. Our model follows the evolution of an ensemble of step configurations, which are consistent with the macroscopic surface profile. Contrary to the usual…
We investigate the performance of fully convolutional networks to simulate the motion and interaction of surface waves in open and closed complex geometries. We focus on a U-Net architecture and analyse how well it generalises to geometric…
We introduce a non-perturbative renormalization approach which identifies stable fixed points in any dimension for the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang dynamics of rough surfaces. The usual limitations of real space methods to deal with anisotropic…
