We construct a conformally invariant random family of closed curves in the plane by welding of random homeomorphisms of the unit circle given in terms of the exponential of Gaussian Free Field. We conjecture that our curves are locally…
We construct a family of random Jordan curves in the plane by welding together two disks on their boundaries using a random homeomorphism. This homeomorphism arises from a random measure whose density, in a generalized sense, is the…
Given a finitely connected region $\Omega$ of the Riemann sphere whose complement consists of $m$ mutually disjoint closed disks $\bar{U}_j$, the random homeomorphism $h_j$ on the boundary component $\partial U_j$ is constructed using the…
We give a simple set of geometric conditions on curves $\eta$, $\tilde{\eta}$ in ${\mathbf H}$ from $0$ to $\infty$ so that if $\varphi \colon {\mathbf H} \to {\mathbf H}$ is a homeomorphism which is conformal off $\eta$ with $\varphi(\eta)…
We solve the classical conformal welding problem for a composition of two random homeomorphisms generated by independent Gaussian multiplicative chaos measures with small parameter values. In other words, given two such measures on the…
The backward chordal Schramm-Loewner Evolution naturally defines a conformal welding homeomorphism of the real line. We show that this homeomorphism is invariant under the automorphism $x\mapsto -1/x$, and conclude that the associated…
In this article, we use the framework of "Random conformal weldings" (by K. Astala, P. Jones, A. Kupiainen, E. Saksman) to prove the existence of Lehto-welding for the inverse for $\gamma<0.1818$ and independent copies for…
We construct a (non-removable) Jordan curve $\Gamma$ and a non-M\"{o}bius homeomorphism of the Riemann sphere which is conformal on the complement of $\Gamma$ and maps the curve $\Gamma$ onto itself. The curve is flexible in the sense of…
Two-pointed quantum disks with a weight parameter $W > 0$ are a family of finite-area random surfaces that arise naturally in Liouville quantum gravity. In this paper we show that conformally welding two quantum disks according to their…
We show that given a log-singular circle homeomorphism $h$ and given any $s\in[1,2]$, there is a flexible curve of Hausdorff dimension $s$ with welding $h$. We also see that there is another curve with welding $h$ and positive area. In…
We show that every orientation-preserving circle homeomorphism is a composition of two conformal welding homeomorphisms, which implies that conformal welding homeomorphisms are not closed under composition. Our approach uses the…
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$_4$…
The seminal work of Sheffield showed that when random surfaces called Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) are conformally welded, the resulting interface is Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE). This has been proved for a variety of configurations,…
We construct a conformal welding of two Liouville quantum gravity random surfaces and show that the interface between them is a random fractal curve called the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE), thereby resolving a variant of a conjecture of…
We study the sewing constraints for rational two-dimensional conformal field theory on oriented surfaces with possibly non-empty boundary. The boundary condition is taken to be the same on all segments of the boundary. The following…
A Jordan curve on the Riemann sphere can be encoded by its conformal welding, a circle homeomorphism. The Loewner energy measures how far a Jordan curve is away from being a circle, or equivalently, how far its welding homeomorphism is away…
We study the conformal type of surfaces spread over the sphere via random quasiconformal maps. Constructing a random Beltrami coefficient on the complex plane, we obtain a locally quasiconformal homeomorphism with prescribed dilatation that…
A large class of Jordan curves on the Riemann sphere can be encoded by circle homeomorphisms via conformal welding, among which we consider the welding homeomorphism of the random SLE loops and the Weil-Petersson class of quasicircles. It…
To a given algebraic curve we assign an infinite family of quantum curves (Schr\"odinger equations), which are in one-to-one correspondence with, and have the structure of, Virasoro singular vectors. For a spectral curve of a matrix model…
Two-pointed quantum disks with a weight parameter $W>0$ is a canonical family of finite-volume random surfaces in Liouville quantum gravity. We extend the conformal welding of quantum disks in [AHS23] to the non-simple regime, and give a…
