Effect of random environment on kinetic roughening: Kardar-Parisi-Zhang model with a static noise coupled to the Navier-Stokes equation

N. V. Antonov, P. I. Kakin, M. A. Reiter

Kinetic roughening of a randomly growing surface can be modelled by the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation with a time-independent (``spatially quenched'' or ``columnar'') random noise.…
