Title

: 

"KPZ equation from certain microscopic interactions"
Abstract

: 

 We derive a form of the KPZ equation, which governs the fluctuations of a class of interface heights, in terms of a martingale 
 problem, as the scaling limit of fluctuation fields with respect to some particle systems such as zero range processes. This is 
 joint work in progress with P. Goncalves and M. Jara.
