The empirical speed of travelling reaction-diffusion fronts fluctuates due to the intrinsic shot noise of the reactions and diffusion. Here we study the long-time front speed fluctuations of a stochastic Huxley-Zel'dovich front. It involves…

Stochastic forces are usually postulated or obtained by eliminating environmental degrees of freedom. Here we identify a variational origin: fluctuating endpoint data in Hamilton's principle induce fluctuations of the on-shell action.…

We describe a simple fully analytic model of the excursion set approach associated with two Gaussian random walks: the first walk represents the initial overdensity around a protohalo, and the second is a crude way of allowing for other…
