Abstract
We investigate analytically the large dimensional behavior of the Kard ar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) dynamics of surface growth using a recently prop osed nonperturbative renormalization for self-affine surface dynamics. Within this framework, we show that the roughness exponent cu decays not faster than alpha similar to 1/d for large d. This implies the abs ence of a finite upper critical dimension.
