Large Scale Dynamics of Interacting Particles
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a model of a Tracer Particle in a Fluid with Hard Core Exclusion (TPE) and a Brownian Particle with hard core exclusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
A gallavotti-cohen-type symmetry in the large deviation functional for stochastic dynamics
Joel L. Lebowitz,Herbert Spohn +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extend the work of Kurchan on the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation theorem, which yields a symmetry property of the large deviation function, to general Markov processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetic equations from Hamiltonian dynamics: Markovian limits
TL;DR: In this paper, a variety of classical as well as quantum-mechanical models for which kinetic equations can be derived rigorously are discussed and the probabilistic nature of the problem is emphasized: the approximation of the microscopic dynamics by either a kinetic or a hydrodynamic equation can be understood as the approximate approximation of a non-Markovian stochastic process by a Markovian process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scale Invariance of the PNG Droplet and the Airy Process
Michael Prähofer,Herbert Spohn +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the static height fluctuations of a particular growth model, the PNG droplet, converges upon proper rescaling to a limit process, which is called the Airy process A(y).
Journal ArticleDOI
Universal distributions for growth processes in 1+1 dimensions and random matrices
Michael Prähofer,Herbert Spohn +1 more
TL;DR: A scaling theory for Kardar-Parisi-Zhang growth in one dimension is developed by a detailed study of the polynuclear growth model and three universal distributions for shape fluctuations and their dependence on the macroscopic shape are identified.
