We introduce a Langevin equation describing the pinning-depinning phase transition experienced by Kardar-Parisi-Zhang interfaces in the presence of a bounding ``lower-wall''. This provides a continuous description for this universality…

We characterize universal features of the sample-to-sample fluctuations of global geometrical observables, such as the area, width, length, and center-of-mass position, in random growing planar clusters. Our examples are taken from…

Control of generically scale-invariant systems, i.e., targeting specific cooperative features in non-linear stochastic interacting systems with many degrees of freedom subject to strong fluctuations and correlations that are characterized…
