We present a scheme to accurately calculate the persistence probabilities on sequences of $n$ heights above a level $h$ from the measured $n+2$ points of the height-height correlation function of a fluctuating interface. The calculated persistence probabilities compare very well with the measured persistence probabilities of a fluctuating phase-separated colloidal interface for the whole experimental range.

Persistence probabilities of the interface height in (1+1)- and (2+1)-dimensional atomistic, solid-on-solid, stochastic models of surface growth are studied using kinetic Monte Carlo simulations, with emphasis on models that belong to the molecular b
eam epitaxy (MBE) universality class. Both the initial transient and the long-time steady-state regimes are investigated. We show that for growth models in the MBE universality class, the nonlinearity of the underlying dynamical equation is clearly reflected in the difference between the measured values of the positive and negative persistence exponents in both transient and steady-state regimes. For the MBE universality class, the positive and negative persistence exponents in the steady-state are found to be $theta^S_{+} = 0.66 pm 0.02$ and $theta^S_{-} = 0.78 pm 0.02$, respectively, in (1+1) dimensions, and $theta^S_{+} = 0.76 pm 0.02$ and $theta^S_{-} =0.85 pm 0.02$, respectively, in (2+1) dimensions. The noise reduction technique is applied on some of the (1+1)-dimensional models in order to obtain accurate values of the persistence exponents. We show analytically that a relation between the steady-state persistence exponent and the dynamic growth exponent, found earlier to be valid for linear models, should be satisfied by the smaller of the two steady-state persistence exponents in the nonlinear models. Our numerical results for the persistence exponents are consistent with this prediction. We also find that the steady-state persistence exponents can be obtained from simulations over times that are much shorter than that required for the interface to reach the steady state. The dependence of the persistence probability on the system size and the sampling time is shown to be described by a simple scaling form.
We study how the Hurst exponent $alpha$ depends on the fraction $f$ of the total time $t$ remembered by non-Markovian random walkers that recall only the distant past. We find that otherwise nonpersistent random walkers switch to persistent behavior
when inflicted with significant memory loss. Such memory losses induce the probability density function of the walkers position to undergo a transition from Gaussian to non-Gaussian. We interpret these findings of persistence in terms of a breakdown of self-regulation mechanisms and discuss their possible relevance to some of the burdensome behavioral and psychological symptoms of Alzheimers disease and other dementias.
We investigate a recently proposed non-Markovian random walk model characterized by loss of memories of the recent past and amnestically induced persistence. We report numerical and analytical results showing the complete phase diagram, consisting of
4 phases, for this system: (i) classical nonpersistence, (ii) classical persistence (iii) log-periodic nonpersistence and (iv) log-periodic persistence driven by negative feedback. The first two phases possess continuous scale invariance symmetry, however log-periodicity breaks this symmetry. Instead, log-periodic motion satisfies discrete scale invariance symmetry, with complex rather than real fractal dimensions. We find for log-periodic persistence evidence not only of statistical but also of geometric self-similarity.
Results of analytic and numerical investigations of first-passage properties of equilibrium fluctuations of monatomic steps on a vicinal surface are reviewed. Both temporal and spatial persistence and survival probabilities, as well as the probabilit
y of persistent large deviations are considered. Results of experiments in which dynamical scanning tunneling microscopy is used to evaluate these first-passage properties for steps with different microscopic mechanisms of mass transport are also presented and interpreted in terms of theoretical predictions for appropriate models. Effects of discrete sampling, finite system size and finite observation time, which are important in understanding the results of experiments and simulations, are discussed.
Numerical and analytic results for the exponent theta describing the decay of the first return probability of an interface to its initial height are obtained for a large class of linear Langevin equations. The models are parametrized by the dynamic r
oughness exponent beta, with 0 < beta < 1; for beta = 1/2 the time evolution is Markovian. Using simulations of solid-on-solid models, of the discretized continuum equations as well as of the associated zero-dimensional stationary Gaussian process, we address two problems: The return of an initially flat interface, and the return to an initial state with fully developed steady state roughness. The two problems are shown to be governed by different exponents. For the steady state case we point out the equivalence to fractional Brownian motion, which has a return exponent theta_S = 1 - beta. The exponent theta_0 for the flat initial condition appears to be nontrivial. We prove that theta_0 to infty for beta to 0, theta_0 geq theta_S for beta < 1/2 and theta_0 leq theta_S for beta > 1/2, and calculate theta_{0,S} perturbatively to first order in an expansion around the Markovian case beta = 1/2. Using the exact result theta_S = 1 - beta, accurate upper and lower bounds on theta_0 can be derived which show, in particular, that theta_0 geq (1 - beta)^2/beta for small beta.
