Within & Beyond the Realm of KPZ
We discuss significant events in the recent Renaissance triggered by the enigmatic and elusive, but rich stochastic nonlinear PDE of Kardar, Parisi & Zhang, a celebrated equation whose reach far exceeds its grasp, touching such diverse phenomena as non-equilibrium stochastic growth, extremal paths through disordered landscapes, driven lattice gases & dissipative condensates, as well as the statistics of random matrices & permutations.
