Random matrix theory and growing interfaces in one dimension — •Herbert Spohn — Technical University Munich --- Laureate of the Max-Planck-Medal

In 1986 Kardar, Parisi, and Zhang proposed a stochastic evolution equation for interface growth. Adding fourteen years, and more, unexpected connections to quantum integrability were discovered in the context of the 1+1 dimensional KPZ equation. My presentation will cover background material, experimental validation, and applications to non-integrable classical and quantum chains.
