PrerequisiteMeasure Theory, Probability (Martingales)AbstractLaplacian growth is the study of interfaces that move in proportion to harmonic measure. We survey progress over the last decade on discrete models of (internal) Laplacian growth, including the abelian sandpile, internal DLA (first analyzed by Lawler, Bramson and Griffeath in 1992), rotor aggregation, and the scaling limits of these m...
DescriptionThe existence and classification problem for maximal growth distributions on smooth manifolds has garnered much interest in the mathematical community in recent years. Prototypical examples of maximal growth distributions are contact structures on $3$-dimensional manifolds and Engel distributions on $4$-dimensional manifolds. The existence and classification of maximal growth distrib...
