QuantAlpsAn ecosystem for quantum science & technologies :
From the philosopher to the industrial

Mehran Kardar, Giorgio Parisi and Yi-Cheng Zhang proposed in 1986 an equation describing the scale invariance of various phenomena. This field has experienced a second life in recent years with the identification of universal distributions highlighted in very different models, both at the theoretical (spin chains, lattice gases) and experimental (cold atoms, exciton-polaritons) levels. Our goal is to provide a broad and accessible overview of these advances, together with the most recent results on these topics.

• Theory of out-of-equilibrium interfaces in random media
• KPZ scalings in open quantum systems
• Fluctuations in excitons-polaritons gases
• Experimental realization of KPZ fronts
• Driven spin chains
• Mathematical aspects of the KPZ universality class
