Abstract
An exact relation is established between the solid-on-solid model describing the growth of crystals and the classical model. Application of this relation to a special case leads to an exact correspondence between the model and the Coulomb gas which matches with the relation obtained by Kosterlitz in the strong-coupling limit.
