Description
Roughening dynamics of various interface problems has been an attractive topic recently. The subject is related to many interdisciplinary branches in nonequilibrium statistical physics such as crystal growth, vortex dynamics, fractals and chaos, and self-organized critical phenomena. This volume includes pedagogical reviews of the scaling concepts in fluctuating surfaces, current theories on expitaxial growth phenomena and interface dynamics in disordered media, and many other related topics. Thus it serves as a valuable reference for both graduate students and researchers in statistical physics and materials science.
