We prove the uniform in space and time convergence of the scaled heights of large classes of deterministic growth models that are monotone and equivariant under translations by constants. The limits are unique viscosity solutions of first- or second-order partial differential equations depending on whether the growth models are scaled hyperbolically or parabolically. The results simplify and extend a recent work by the first author to more general surface growth models. The proofs are based on the methodology developed by Barles and the second author to prove convergence of approximation schemes.

Particle-based stochastic reaction-diffusion (PBSRD) models are a popular approach for studying biological systems involving both noise in the reaction process and diffusive transport. In this work we derive coarse-grained deterministic partial integro-differential equation (PIDE) models that provide a mean field approximation to the volume reactivity PBSRD model, a model commonly used for studying cellular processes. We formulate a weak measure-valued stochastic process (MVSP) representation for the volume reactivity PBSRD model, demonstrating for a simplified but representative system that it is consistent with the commonly used Doi Fock Space representation of the corresponding forward equation. We then prove the convergence of the general volume reactivity model MVSP to the mean field PIDEs in the large-population (i.e. thermodynamic) limit.
The equations of the temperature-accelerated molecular dynamics (TAMD) method for the calculations of free energies and partition functions are analyzed. Specifically, the exponential convergence of the law of these stochastic processes is established, with a convergence rate close to the one of the limiting, effective dynamics at higher temperature obtained with infinite acceleration. It is also shown that the invariant measures of TAMD are close to a known reference measure, with an error that can be quantified precisely. Finally, a Central Limit Theorem is proven, which allows the estimation of errors on properties calculated by ergodic time averages. These results not only demonstrate the usefulness and validity range of the TAMD equations, but they also permit in principle to adjust the parameter in these equations to optimize their efficiency.
We study the stochastic growth process in discrete time $x_{i+1} = (1 + mu_i) x_i$ with growth rate $mu_i = rho e^{Z_i - frac12 var(Z_i)}$ proportional to the exponential of an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (O-U) process $dZ_t = - gamma Z_t dt + sigma dW_t$ sampled on a grid of uniformly spaced times ${t_i}_{i=0}^n$ with time step $tau$. Using large deviation theory methods we compute the asymptotic growth rate (Lyapunov exponent) $lambda = lim_{nto infty} frac{1}{n} log mathbb{E}[x_n]$. We show that this limit exists, under appropriate scaling of the O-U parameters, and can be expressed as the solution of a variational problem. The asymptotic growth rate is related to the thermodynamical pressure of a one-dimensional lattice gas with attractive exponential potentials. For $Z_t$ a stationary O-U process the lattice gas coincides with a system considered previously by Kac and Helfand. We derive upper and lower bounds on $lambda$. In the large mean-reversion limit $gamma n tau gg 1$ the two bounds converge and the growth rate is given by a lattice version of the van der Waals equation of state. The predictions are tested against numerical simulations of the stochastic growth model.
A stochastic transport linear equation (STLE) with multiplicative space-time dependent noise is studied. It is shown that, under suitable assumptions on the noise, a multiplicative renormalization leads to convergence of the solutions of STLE to the solution of a deterministic parabolic equation. Existence and uniqueness for STLE are also discussed. Our method works in dimension $dgeq 2$; the case $d=1$ is also investigated but no conclusive answer is obtained.
Let $A$ and $B$ be two $N$ by $N$ deterministic Hermitian matrices and let $U$ be an $N$ by $N$ Haar distributed unitary matrix. It is well known that the spectral distribution of the sum $H=A+UBU^*$ converges weakly to the free additive convolution of the spectral distributions of $A$ and $B$, as $N$ tends to infinity. We establish the optimal convergence rate ${frac{1}{N}}$ in the bulk of the spectrum.
