    Large time asymptotics of growth models on space-like paths II: PNG and parallel TASEP
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2007) Borodin, Alexei; Ferrari, Patrik; Sasamoto, Tomohiro
    We consider the polynuclear growth (PNG) model in 1+1 dimension with flat initial condition and no extra constraints. The joint distributions of surface height at finitely many points at a fixed time moment are given as marginals of a signed determinantal point process. The long time scaling limit of the surface height is shown to coincide with the Airy$_1$ process. This result holds more generally for the observation points located along any space-like path in the space-time plane. We also obtain the corresponding results for the discrete time TASEP (totally asymmetric simple exclusion process) with parallel update.
