The essential features of many interfaces driven out of equilibrium are described by the same equation---the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation. How do living interfaces, such as the cell membrane, fit into this picture? In an endeavour to…
Interfaces advancing through random media represent a number of different problems in physics, biology and other disciplines. Here, we study the pinning/depinning transition of the prototypical non-equilibrium interfacial model, i.e. the…
Experimental measurements of the surface tension of colloidal interfaces have long been in conflict with computer simulations. In this work we show that the surface tension of colloids as measured by surface fluctuations picks up a gravity…
Interfaces in three-dimensional many-body systems can exhibit rich phenomena beyond the corresponding bulk properties. In particular, they can fluctuate and give rise to massless low energy degrees of freedom even in the presence of a…
Elastic interfaces display scale-invariant geometrical fluctuations at sufficiently large lengthscales. Their asymptotic static roughness then follows a power-law behavior, whose associated exponent provides a robust signature of the…
We report on an extensive numerical investigation of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation describing non-equilibrium interfaces. Attention is paid to the dependence of the growth exponents on the details of the distribution of the noise. All…
We present a theoretical and numerical investigation of the effect of a time-varying external driving force on interface growth. First, we derive a relation between the roughening exponents which comes from a generalized Galilean…
The surface tension of rough interfaces between coexisting phases in 2D and 3D Ising models are discussed in view of the known results and some original calculations presented in this paper. The results are summarised in a formula, which…
We argue that a strict relation exists between two in principle unrelated quantities: The size of the growing domains in a coarsening system, and the kinetic roughening of an interface. This relation is confirmed by extensive simulations of…
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…
We define a new model of interface roughening which has the property that the minimum of interface height is conserved locally during the growth. This model corresponds to the limit $q \to \infty$ of the q-color dimer deposition-evaporation…
The growth of stochastic interfaces in the vicinity of a boundary and the non-trivial crossover towards the behaviour deep in the bulk is analysed. The causal interactions of the interface with the boundary lead to a roughness larger near…
We review a recent asymptotic weak noise approach to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation for the kinetic growth of an interface in higher dimensions. The weak noise approach provides a many body picture of a growing interface in terms of a…
As a canonical model for wetting far from thermal equilibrium we study a Kardar-Parisi-Zhang interface growing on top of a hard-core substrate. Depending on the average growth velocity the model exhibits a non-equilibrium wetting transition…
A recently introduced real space renormalization group technique, developed for the analysis of processes in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class, is generalized and tested by applying it to a different family of surface growth…
We study the forced fluid invasion of an air-filled model porous medium at constant flow rate, in 1+1 dimensions, both experimentally and theoretically. We focus on the non-local character of the interface dynamics, due to liquid…
The Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation is accepted as a generic description of interfacial growth. In several recent studies, however, values of the roughness exponent alpha have been reported that are significantly less than that…
An overview of recent studies of nonequilibrium bound interfaces is given. Attention is focused on Kardar-Parisi-Zhang interfaces in the presence of upper and lower walls, interacting via short-- and long--ranged potentials. A comparison…
We study the interface representation of the contact process (CP) at its directed-percolation critical point, where the scaling properties of the interface can be related to those of the original particle model. Interestingly, such a…
We introduce a new kinetic interface model suitable for simulating adsorption-reaction processes which take place preferentially at surface defects such as steps and vacancies. As the average interface velocity is taken to zero, the self-…
