Topics in coarsening phenomena
Abstract
These lecture notes give a very short introduction to coarsening phenomena and summarize some recent results in the field. They focus on three aspects: the super-universality hypothesis, the geometry of growing structures, and coarsening in the spiral kinetically constrained model.
