Abstract

This seminar reviewed the main past advances on the KPZ equation and explained the reasons for the recent revival of interest in this enigmatic stochastic, nonlinear equation. The spin-offs of these advances affect a wide range of fields, from non-equilibrium growth and network gas to queuing theory, optimal paths in random landscapes and the statistical properties of random matrices.
