SLE(6) and the geometry of diffusion fronts

Probability 2009-12-21 v1

Abstract

We study the diffusion front for a natural two-dimensional model where many particles starting at the origin diffuse independently. It turns out that this model can be described using properties of near-critical percolation, and provides a natural example where critical fractal geometries spontaneously arise.
