Nonequilibrium Growth problems

Abstract

We discuss the features of nonequilibrium growth problems, their scaling description and their differences from equilibrium problems. The emphasis is on the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation and the renormalization group point of view. Some of the recent developments along these lines are mentioned.Comment: 9 pages, revtex, A brief overview as published in Current Science 77, 394 (1999
