The Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation on the real line is well-known to admit Brownian motion with a linear drift as a stationary distribution (modulo additive constants). We show that these solutions are attractive, a result known as a…
We explain the exact solution of the 1+1 dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation with sharp wedge initial conditions. Thereby it is confirmed that the continuum model belongs to the KPZ universality class, not only as regards to scaling…
We provide the first tight bounds on the lower tail probability of the one point distribution of the KPZ equation with narrow wedge initial data. Our bounds hold for all sufficiently large times $T$ and demonstrates a crossover between…
We propose a simple discrete model to study the nonequilibrium fluctuations of two locally coupled 1+1 dimensional systems (interfaces). Measuring numerically the tilt-dependent velocity we construct a set of stochastic continuum equations…

We analyze correlations in step-edge fluctuations using the Bortz-Kalos-Lebowitz kinetic Monte Carlo algorithm, with a 2-parameter expression for energy barriers, and compare with our VT-STM line-scan experiments on spiral steps on Pb(111).…

In a quenched mesoscopic fluid, modelling transport processes at high densities, we perform computer simulations of the single particle energy autocorrelation function C_e(t), which is essentially a return probability. This is done to test…

We study the crossover from the macroscopic fluctuation theory (MFT) which describes 1D stochastic diffusive systems at late times, to the weak noise theory (WNT) which describes the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation at early times. We…

We identify the fluctuations of the partition function of the continuous random energy model on a Galton-Watson tree in the so-called weak correlation regime. Namely, when the ``speed functions'', that describe the time-inhomogeneous…
Brownian motion is a continuum scaling limit for a wide class of random processes, and there has been great success in developing a theory for its properties (such as distribution functions or regularity) and expanding the breadth of its…
We formulate the non-linear field theory for a fluctuating counter-ion distribution in the presence of a fixed, arbitrary charge distribution. The Poisson-Boltzmann equation is obtained as the saddle-point, and the effects of fluctuations…
In the present work, we study the two-dimensional anisotropic KPZ equation (AKPZ), which is formally given by \begin{equation*} \partial_t h=\tfrac12 \Delta h + \lambda ((\partial_1 h)^2)-(\partial_2 h)^2) +\xi\,, \end{equation*} where…
We investigate the infinite-dimensional limit of nonequilibrium surface growth by numerically integrating stochastic growth equations on a fully connected graph. In particular, we study the Edwards-Wilkinson (EW), Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ),…
