Abstract

The peanosphere construction of Duplantier, Miller, and Sheffield provides a means of representing a γ\gamma-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surface, γ(0,2)\gamma \in (0,2), decorated with a space-filling form of Schramm's SLEκ_\kappa, κ=16/γ2(4,)\kappa = 16/\gamma^2 \in (4,\infty), η\eta as a gluing of a pair of trees which are encoded by a correlated two-dimensional Brownian motion ZZ. We prove a KPZ-type formula which relates the Hausdorff dimension of any Borel subset AA of the range of η\eta which can be defined as a function of η\eta (modulo time parameterization) to the Hausdorff dimension of the corresponding time set η1(A)\eta^{-1}(A). This result serves to reduce the problem of computing the Hausdorff dimension of any set associated with an SLE, CLE, or related processes in the interior of a domain to the problem of computing the Hausdorff dimension of a certain set associated with a Brownian motion. For many natural examples, the associated Brownian motion set is well-known. As corollaries, we obtain new proofs of the Hausdorff dimensions of the SLEκ_\kappa curve for κ4\kappa \not=4; the double points and cut points of SLEκ_\kappa for κ>4\kappa >4; and the intersection of two flow lines of a Gaussian free field. We also obtain the Hausdorff dimension of the set of mm-tuple points of space-filling SLEκ_\kappa for κ>4\kappa>4 and m3m \geq 3 by computing the Hausdorff dimension of the so-called (m2)(m-2)-tuple π/2\pi/2-cone times of a correlated planar Brownian motion.
