We show that these processes, as $N\\rightarrow \\infty$, have a c\\`adl\\`ag scaling limit $G=(G_\\mu)_{\\mu\\in \\mathbb{R}}$, parametrized by $\\mu$ and taking values in $C(\\mathbb{R})$. The limiting process $G$, which can be thought of as the Busemann process under the KPZ scaling, can be described as an ensemble of \"sticky\" lines of Brownian regularity. We believe $G$ is the universal scaling limit of Busemann processes in the KPZ universality class. Our proof provides insight into this limiting behaviour by highlighting a connection between the joint distribution of Busemann functions obtained by Fan and Sepp\\\"al\\\"ainen in arXiv:1808.09069, and a sorting algorithm of random walks introduced by O'Connell and Yor [32]", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2022-01-12T13:47:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "passage percolation", "diffusive scaling limit", "kpz universality class", "rescaled busemann process", "brownian regularity" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
