Flat surface phases are unstable during growth and known to become rough. This does not exclude the possibility that surface reconstruction order persists in rough growing surfaces, in analogy with so-called equilibrium reconstructed rough…
Substrate disorder effects on the scaling properties of growing crystalline surfaces in solidification or epitaxial deposition processes are investigated. Within the harmonic approach there is a phase transition into a low-temperature…

The static and dynamic roughenings of a growing crystalline facet is studied where the growth mechanism is controlled by a restricted-curvature (RC) geometry. A continuum equation, in analogy with the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation is…
Aiming to investigate the upper critical dimension, $d_u$, of the KPZ class, in [EPL 103 (2013) 10005] some growth models were numerically analyzed using Cayley trees (CTs) as substrates, as a way to access their behavior in the…

We study a generalized Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation [Jana et al., Phys. Rev. E 109, L032104 (2024)] that sets the paradigm for universality in roughening of growing nonequilibrium surfaces without any conservation laws but with…
The deposition dynamics of particles (or the growth of a rigid crystal) on a disordered substrate at a finite deposition rate is explored. We begin with an equation of motion which includes, in addition to the disorder, the periodic…
We studied scaling in kinetic roughening and phase ordering during growth of binary systems using 1+1 dimensional single-step solid-on-solid model with two components interacting via Ising-like interaction with the strength K. We found that…
In many growth processes particles are highly mobile in an active layer at the surface, but are relatively immobile once incorporated in the bulk. We study models in which atoms are allowed to interact, equilibrate, and order on the…
We present a recently introduced real space renormalization group (RG) approach to the study of surface growth. The method permits us to obtain the properties of the KPZ strong coupling fixed point, which is not accessible to standard…
Two-dimensional (2D) KPZ growth is usually investigated on substrates of lateral sizes $L_x=L_y$, so that $L_x$ and the correlation length ($\xi$) are the only relevant lengths determining the scaling behavior. However, in cylindrical…
We analyze in detail the Solid-On-Solid model (SOS) for growth processes on a square substrate in 2+1 dimensions. By using the Markovian surface properties, we introduce an alternative approach for determining the roughness exponent of a…
We discuss the results of a study of restricted solid-on-solid models for fcc (110) surfaces. These models are simple modifications of the exactly solvable BCSOS model, and are able to describe a $(2\times 1)$ missing-row reconstructed…
