Brownian motion is a continuum scaling limit for a wide class of random processes, and there has been great success in developing a theory for its properties (such as distribution functions or regularity) and expanding the breadth of its universality class. Over the past twenty five years a new universality class has emerged to describe a host of important physical and probabilistic models (including one dimensional interface growth processes, interacting particle systems and polymers in random…

Time evolution of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation
The use of the non-linear SPDEs are inevitable in both physics and applied mathematics since many of the physical phenomena in nature can be effectively modeled in random and non-linear way. The

Scientific reports

This work investigates growing interfaces of liquid-crystal turbulence and finds not only universal scaling, but universal distributions of interface positions, which obey the largest-eigenvalue distributions of random matrices and depend on whether the interface is curved or flat, albeit universal in each case.
