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…
We present a series of recent results on the well-posedness of very singular parabolic stochastic partial differential equations. These equations are such that the question of what it even means to be a solution is highly non-trivial. This…

In this paper we study a sharp interface limit for a stochastic reaction-diffusion equation. We consider the case that the noise is a space-time white noise multiplied by a small parameter and a smooth function which has a compact support.…
Using stability arguments, this Brief Report suggests that a term that enhances the surface tension in the presence of large height fluctuations should be included in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation. A one-loop renormalization group…

We study the growth of a periodic pattern in one dimension for a model of spinodal decomposition, the Cahn-Hilliard equation. We particularly focus on the intermediate region, where the non-linearity cannot be negected anymore, and before…
The Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation sets the universality class for growing and roughening of nonequilibrium surfaces without any conservation law and nonlocal effects. We argue here that the KPZ equation can be generalized by including…
We apply the recently introduced distribution of sign-times (DST) to non-equilibrium interface growth dynamics. We are able to treat within a unified picture the persistence properties of a large class of relaxational and noisy linear…
Understanding possible universal properties for systems far from equilibrium is much less developed than for their equilibrium counterparts and poses a major challenge to present day statistical physics. The study of aging properties, and…
We propose a unified moving boundary problem for surface growth by electrochemical and chemical vapor deposition, which is derived from constitutive equations into which stochastic forces are incorporated. We compute the coefficients in the…
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…
We study the persistence properties in a simple model of two coupled interfaces characterized by heights h_1 and h_2 respectively, each growing over a d-dimensional substrate. The first interface evolves independently of the second and can…
