Title:  The directed landscape is a black noise.

Abstract:  The directed landscape is the central object in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class, and is conjecturally the scaling limit for all models of last passage percolation, directed polymers, exclusion processes, and many other types of interface growth models arising in probability and statistical physics. It was constructed independently by Matetski-Quastel-Remenik and Dauvergne-Ortmann-Virag. In this talk, we discuss a recent result where we show that the directed landscape is a black noise. This roughly means that it is noise-sensitive and cannot be expressed as a random dynamical system driven by Gaussian white noise. In particular, it cannot be written as a stochastic PDE.
