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 numerically show that the statistical properties of the shortest path on critical percolation clusters are consistent with the ones predicted for Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) curves for $\kappa=1.04\pm0.02$. The shortest path results…
We continue the study of convergence of multipole pluricomplex Green functions for a bounded hyperconvex domain of $\mathbb C^n$, in the case where poles collide. We consider the case where all poles do not converge to the same point in the…
The aim of this paper is to obtain convergence in mean in the uniform topology of piecewise linear approximations of Stochastic Differential Equations (SDEs) with $C^1$ drift and $C^2$ diffusion coefficients with uniformly bounded…
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…
SLE$_{\kappa}(\rho)$ is a variant of SLE$_{\kappa}$ where $\rho$ characterizes the repulsion (if $\rho>0$) or attraction $(\rho<0)$ from the boundary. This paper examines the probabilities of SLE$_{\kappa}(\rho)$ to get close to the…
We outline a strategy for showing convergence of loop-erased random walk on the Z^2 square lattice to SLE(2), in the supremum norm topology that takes the time parametrization of the curves into account. The discrete curves are parametrized…
Schramm Loewner Evolutions (SLE) are random increasing hulls defined through the Loewner equation driven by Brownian motion. It is known that the increasing hulls are generated by continuous curves. When the driving process is of the form…
We consider the measure on multiple chordal Schramm-Loewner evolution ($SLE_\kappa$) curves. We establish a derivative estimate and use it to give a direct proof that the partition function is $C^2$ if $\kappa<4$.
To explore the relation between properties of Loewner chains and properties of their driving functions, we study Loewner chains driven by functions $U$ of finite total variation. Under some appropriate conditions, we show existence of the…
Establishing the convergence of splines can be cast as a variational problem which is amenable to a $\Gamma$-convergence approach. We consider the case in which the regularization coefficient scales with the number of observations, $n$, as…
We review some of the results that have been derived in the last years on conformal invariance, scaling limits and properties of some two-dimensional random curves. In particular, we describe the intuitive ideas that lead to the definition…
For two-dimensional last-passage time models of weakly increasing paths, interesting scaling limits have been proved for points close the axis (the hard edge). For strictly increasing paths of Bernoulli($p$) marked sites, the relevant…
We construct a coupling between a massive GFF and a random curve in which the curve can be interpreted as the level line of the field and has the law of massive SLE$_4$. This coupling is obtained by reweighting the law of the standard…
In this paper by calculating carefully the capacities (defined by high order Sobolev norms on the Wiener space) for some functions of Brownian motion, we show that the dyadic approximations of the sample paths of the Brownian motion…
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$_4$…
This article is meant to serve as a guide to recent developments in the study of the scaling limit of critical models. These new developments were made possible through the definition of the Stochastic Loewner Evolution (SLE) by Oded…
Motivated by homothetic solutions to curvature-driven flows of planar curves, as well as their many physical applications, this work carries out a systematic study of oriented curves whose curvature $\kappa$ is a given function of position…
We prove large deviation principles (LDPs) for full chordal, radial, and multichordal SLE(0+) curves parameterized by capacity. The rate function is given by the appropriate variant of the Loewner energy. There are two key novelties in the…
In part 1 (Chapter 2) we present the basic notions of Loewner theory. Here we use a modern form which was developed by F. Bracci, M. Contreras, S. D\'iaz-Madrigal et al. and which can be applied to certain higher dimensional complex…
