We apply a number of schemes which variationally improve perturbation theory for the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation in order to extract estimates for the dynamic exponent z. The results for the various schemes show the same broad features,…
We study the solution $h_\varepsilon$ of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation for $d \geq 3$: $$ \frac{\partial}{\partial t} h_{\varepsilon} = \frac12 \Delta h_{\varepsilon} + \bigg[\frac12 |\nabla h_\varepsilon |^2 - C_\varepsilon\bigg]+…

We introduce a new concept of solution to the KPZ equation which is shown to extend the classical Cole-Hopf solution. This notion provides a factorisation of the Cole-Hopf solution map into a "universal" measurable map from the probability…

After a brief introduction we review the nonperturbative weak noise approach to the KPZ equation in one dimension. We argue that the strong coupling aspects of the KPZ equation are related to the existence of localized propagating domain…
We consider an interacting particles system composed of a Hamiltonian part and perturbed by a conservative stochastic noise so that the full system conserves two quantities: energy and volume. The Hamiltonian part is regulated by a scaling…

Universal behavior in far-from-equilibrium systems is driven by interactions between transport processes and noise structure. The Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) framework predicts that extensions incorporating conserved currents or temporally…
The strong-coupling regime of Kardar-Parisi-Zhang surface growth driven by short-ranged noise has an upper critical dimension d_> less or equal to four (where the dynamic exponent z takes the value z (d_>) = 2). To derive this, we use the…
We consider a stochastic interface $h(x,t)$, described by the $1+1$ Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation on the half-line $x\geq0$ with the reflecting boundary at $x=0$. The interface is initially flat, $h(x,t=0)=0$. We focus on the…
We study the surface dynamics of silica films grown by low pressure chemical vapor deposition. Atomic force microscopy measurements show that the surface reaches a scale invariant stationary state compatible with the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang…
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…
We unveil a remarkable connection between the sine-Gordon quantum field theory and the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) growth equation. We find that the non-relativistic limit of the two point correlation function of the sine-Gordon theory is…
The term 'KPZ' stands for the initials of three physicists, namely Kardar, Parisi and Zhang, which, in 1986 conjectured the existence of universal scaling behaviours for many random growth processes in the plane. A process is said to belong…
