5 A famous result Theorem (Bertini-Giacomin 97) ζ(t, x) = height field associated to a weakly asymmetric simple exclusion process. Rescaled field: X ε (t, x) = εζ(ε 2 t, ε 1 x) v ε. Average speed: v ε = 1 2ε X ε solution of the KPZ equation (w.r.t D(R +, C(R)) topology). t h = x h 1 ( x h) 2( 2 ) + ξ. Scaling leaves stochastic heat equation invariant. Gives interpretation for infinite renormalisation in KPZ. Particle model changes with the scaling (asymmetry). p.2
