We study the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) growth equation in one dimension with a noise variance $c(t)$ depending on time. We find that for $c(t)\propto t^{-\alpha}$ there is a transition at $\alpha=1/2$. When $\alpha>1/2$, the solution…

Growth of interfaces during vapor deposition is analyzed on a discrete lattice. It leads to finding distribution of local heights, measurable for any lattice model. Invariance in the change of this distribution in time is used to determine…
