DESCRIPTION:The totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) is a m
 icroscopic analogue of Burgers equation.\nThe characteristics of Burgers e
 quation play an important role in its solution. The second class particle 
 in TASEP mirrors the role of a microscopic characteristic. Although much i
 s known about the macroscopic behaviour of the second class particle\, it 
 is of interest to understand its fluctuations. I will discuss the behaviou
 r of the second class particle when the initial conditions of TASEP conver
 ge under KPZ scaling. The second class particle has a scaling limit\, whic
 h can be described in terms of geometric concepts arising in the KPZ unive
 rsality class. This is joint work with Balint Virag.
