Mean-field theory of polynuclear surface growth
We study statistical properties of a continuum model of polynuclear surface growth on an infinite substrate. We develop a self-consistent mean-field theory which is solved to deduce the growth velocity and the extremal behaviour of the coverage. Numerical simulations show that this theory gives an improved approximation for the coverage compared to the previous linear recursion relations approa...
متن کاملApplication of Mean Field Games to Growth Theory
This article discusses the interaction between economic growth in the sense of human capital accumulation and the dynamics of inequalities. We use a mean-field game framework in which individuals improve their human capital both to improve their wages and to avoid potential competition with less skilled individuals. Our contribution is twofold. First, we exhibit a mechanism in which competition...
متن کاملMean-field theory of nucleation and growth on strained surfaces
Mean-field nucleation and growth modeling is important for understanding various adsorbatesubstrate systems, particularly in the context of epitaxial growth. Conventional mean-field theory does not take into account non-local interactions, but adparticles may interact with strained islands via long range elastic interactions mediated by the substrate. We show that recent extensions of mean-fiel...
متن کاملFree-Form Surface Matching using Mean Field Theory
A new method for free-form surface matching is presented. The method provides an initial guess of the transformation, which may subsequently be reened by the Iterated Closest Point method. The algorithm is based on Mean Field Theory (MFT). MFT has recently been shown to be a powerful optimization technique. It has a very similar architecture to a Hoppeld neural network, but is considerably more...
متن کاملEmbedded mean-field theory.
We introduce embedded mean-field theory (EMFT), an approach that flexibly allows for the embedding of one mean-field theory in another without the need to specify or fix the number of particles in each subsystem. EMFT is simple, is well-defined without recourse to parameters, and inherits the simple gradient theory of the parent mean-field theories. In this paper, we report extensive benchmarki...
