Stochastic Growth Models without Classical Branching Processes

All mathematical journals, including MPRF, now look like random collections of papers in one of the immense domains of mathematics like analysis, algebra, probability etc. But there are other classifications of mathematical domains (theories), where techniques from all mathematics can be used, but all activity is concentrated around some very important applied problem. One of such applied problems we consider here, and it leads us, in particular, to one of many possible projects in probability theory. One of our goals is to get the journal out of the state, where it serves as a stock of random papers. Submitted to MPRF papers, which appear to be in the framework of this project, will be reviewed and published as fast as possible.
