DESCRIPTION:Ballistic deposition is a classical model for interface growth
  in which unit blocks fall down vertically at random on the different site
 s of Z and stick to the interface at the first point of contact\, causing 
 it to grow. We consider an alternative version of this model in which the 
 blocks have random heights which are i.i.d. with a heavy (right) tail\, an
 d where each block sticks to the interface at the first point of contact w
 ith probability p (otherwise\, it falls straight down until it lands on a 
 block belonging to the interface). We study scaling limits of the resultin
 g interface for the different values of p and show that there is a phase t
 ransition as p goes from 1 to 0. Joint work with Francis Comets and Joseba
  Dalmau.
