Felix Otto at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the ... Stochastic partial differential equations can be used to model a wide range of dynamic processes, for example, the surface growth ...

While generic HJ equations can be hard to solve ... For instance, the method solves the Fokker-Planck equation, where heat diffuses in a linear way, but there are additional terms that drift ...

Several distinguished physicists had created complex equations trying to work it out, but none solved the problem. Planck was as steeped in traditional physics as his colleagues, but he had an ...
