The universal relation between scaling exponents in first-passage percolation

Abstract

It has been conjectured in numerous physics papers that in ordinary first-passage percolation on integer lattices, the fluctuation exponent and the wandering exponent are related through the universal relation =2 -1, irrespective of the dimension. This is sometimes called the KPZ relation between the two exponents. This article gives a rigorous proof of this conjecture assuming that the exponents exist in a certain sense.
