We study a class of super-rough growth models whose structure factor satisfies the Family-Vicsek scaling. We demonstrate that a macroscopic background spontaneously develops in the local surface profile, which dominates the scaling of the…

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 provide a comprehensive report on scale-invariant fluctuations of growing interfaces in liquid-crystal turbulence, for which we recently found evidence that they belong to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class for 1+1…

An exact solution is introduced for one dimensional space-fractional Edwards-Wilkinson equation. It is shown that the roughness obeys the Family-Viscek dynamic scaling form and the scaling exponents is derived. It is seen that the scaling…

The scaling laws describing the roughness development of crack surfaces are incorporated into the Griffith criterion. We show that, in the case of a Family-Vicsek scaling, the energy balance leads to a purely elastic brittle behavior. On…

Local roughness distributions (LRDs) are studied in the growth regimes of lattice models in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) class in 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions and in a model of the Villain-Lai-Das Sarma (VLDS) growth class in 2+1 dimensions. The…
