Brief Description: The atypical growth in a random interface
Special Note:
Abstract:

Random interface growth is all around us: tumors, bacterial colonies, infections, and propagating flame fronts. The KPZ equation is a stochastic PDE central to a class of random growth phenomena. In this talk, I will explain how to combine tools from probability, partial differential equations, and integrable systems to understand the behavior of the KPZ equation when it exhibits unusual growth.

This talk is based in part on joint works with Pierre Yves Gaudreau Lamarre and Li-Cheng Tsai.
