The Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation is a celebrated non-linear stochastic dynamical equation yielding non-equilibrium universal scaling. It exhibits notorious non-perturbative aspects. The KPZ fixed point is strong-coupling, all the more…

Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) scaling has been observed in discrete polariton lattices, enabled by engineered band structures that stabilize the condensate. Whether this universality extends to intrinsically continuous systems with natural…

We consider the scaling limits for a one-dimensional random growth model, the weakly asymmetric single step Solid-on-Solid process. We show that the fluctuation field, if considered in an appropriate (long) space-time scale, solves the…

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…
