The development of Schramm--Loewner evolution (SLE) as the scaling limits of discrete models from statistical physics makes direct simulation of SLE an important task. The most common method, suggested by Marshall and Rohde \cite{MR05}, is…

SLE($\kappa,\rho$) is a variant of the Schramm-Loewner Evolution which describes the curves which are not conformal invariant, but are self-similar due to the presence of some other preferred points on the boundary. In this paper we study…

Schramm-Loewner Evolution (SLE) is a stochastic process that helps classify critical statistical models using one real parameter $\kappa$. Numerical study of SLE often involves curves that start and end on the real axis. To reduce numerical…

Particular boundary correlation functions of conformal field theory are needed to answer some questions related to random conformally invariant curves known as Schramm-Loewner evolutions (SLE). In this article, we introduce a correspondence…

Conformally-invariant curves that appear at critical points in two-dimensional statistical mechanics systems, and their fractal geometry have received a lot of attention in recent years. On the one hand, Schramm has invented a new rigorous…

We consider the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE$_\kappa$) for $\kappa \in (4,8)$, which is the regime that the curve is self-intersecting but not space-filling. We let ${\mathcal K}$ be the set of $\kappa \in (4,8)$ for which the adjacency…

Numerical studies of fractal curves in the plane often focus on subtle geometrical properties such as their left passage probability. Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) is a mathematical framework which makes explicit predictions for such…

Standard Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) is driven by a continuous Brownian motion which then produces a trace, a continuous fractal curve connecting the singular points of the motion. If jumps are added to the driving function, the trace…

We consider the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE$_\kappa$) with $\kappa=4$, the critical value of $\kappa > 0$ at or below which SLE$_\kappa$ is a simple curve and above which it is self-intersecting. We show that the range of an SLE$_4$…
