| Citation | Jeremy Quastel has made seminal contributions to both probability theory and mathematical physics with an emphasis on the question to what extent macroscopic, phenomenological, laws of physics can be derived rigorously from microscopic, more fundamental ones. A stunning achievement has been his extensive study of the Kardar Parisi Zhang universality class culminating in a full characterisation of the KPZ fixed point describing the large scale fluctuations of many interface growth models. |
