We also consider variants of last passage percolation with inhomogeneous weights and provide variational formulas of a similar nature. This proves one aspect of the conjectural description of the renormalization fixed point of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-12-16T17:30:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "general initial data", "fluctuations", "airy process variational formulas", "passage percolation", "discrete time parallel update" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 44, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1412.5087C" } } }
