Title: Anomaly in numerical integrations of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation
Authors: Lam, CH

Abstract: We demonstrate that conventional finite difference schemes for direct numerical integration do not approximate the continuum Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation. The effective diffusion coefficient is found to be inconsistent with the nominal one. This is explained by the existence of microscopic roughness in the resulting surfaces.
Keywords: Finite difference methods
Integration
Phase transformations
Surface diffusion
