We consider a discrete-time model for random interface growth which admits exact formulas and converges to the Polynuclear growth model in a particular limit. The height of the interface is initially flat and the evolution involves the…

Ballistic deposition is one of the many models of interface growth that are believed to be in the KPZ universality class, but have so far proved to be largely intractable mathematically. In this model, blocks of size one fall independently…

We introduce a new method based on cellular automata dynamics to study stochastic growth equations. The method defines an interface growth process which depends on height differences between neighbors. The growth rule assigns a probability…
