Schramm Loewner Evolution (SLE) is a one-parameter family of random planar curves introduced by Oded Schramm in 1999 as the candidates for the scaling limits of the interfaces in the planar critical lattice models. This is the only possible…

We prove existence (and simpleness) of the trace for both forward and backward Loewner chains under fairly general conditions on semimartingale drivers. As an application, we show that stochastic Komatu-Loewner evolutions SKLE$_{\alpha,b}$…

For $\kappa>0$ and $\rho>-2$, we construct a $\sigma$-finite measure, called a rooted SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ bubble measure, on the space of curves in the upper half plane $\mathbb H$ started and ended at the same boundary point, which…

We define a natural conformally invariant measure on unrooted Brownian loops in the plane and study some of its properties. We relate this measure to a measure on loops rooted at a boundary point of a domain and show how this relation gives…

We show that, for $\kappa\in(0,8)$, the integral of the laws of two-sided radial SLE$_\kappa$ curves through different interior points against a measure with SLE$_\kappa$ Green function density is the law of a chordal SLE$_\kappa$ curve,…

Let $D={\mathbb H}\setminus \bigcup_{j=1}^N C_j$ be a standard slit domain, where ${\mathbb H}$ is the upper half plane and $C_j,1\le j\le N,$ are mutually disjoint horizontal line segments in ${\mathbb H}$. A stochastic Komatu-Loewner…

In this paper we ask whether one can take the limit of multiple SLE as the number of slits goes to infinity. In the special case of $n$ slits that connect $n$ points of the boundary to one fixed point, one can take the limit of the Loewner…

We use the whole-plane Loewner equation to define a family of continuous LERW in finitely connected domains that are started from interior points. These continuous LERW satisfy conformal invariance, preserve some continuous local…

The conjecture that the scaling limit of the two-dimensional self-avoiding walk (SAW) in a half plane is given by the stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE) with $\kappa=8/3$ leads to explicit predictions about the SAW. A remarkable feature of…

It is known that Schramm-Loewner Evolutions (SLEs) have a.s. frontier points if $\kappa>4$ and a.s. cutpoints if $4<\kappa<8$. If $\kappa>4$, an appropriate version of $\SLE(\kappa)$ has a renewal property: it starts afresh after visiting…

We provide a pedagogical review of CFT techniques to compute certain Schramm-Loewner Evolution (SLE) observables in the upper half-plane. The approach relies on the ability to express the observables as bulk-boundary correlation functions…

We conjecture a relationship between the scaling limit of the fixed-length ensemble of self-avoiding walks in the upper half plane and radial SLE with kappa=8/3 in this half plane from 0 to i. The relationship is that if we take a curve…

We apply the method of correlation functions to the coefficient problem in stochastic geometry. In particular, we give a proof for some universal patterns conjectured by M. Zinsmeister for the second moments of the Taylor coefficients for…

We prove that SLE$_\kappa$ for $\kappa \in (4,8)$ on an independent $\gamma=4/\sqrt{\kappa}$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surface is uniquely characterized by the form of its LQG boundary length process and the form of the conditional…

In the series of lectures, we will discuss probability laws of random points, curves, and surfaces. Starting from a brief review of the notion of martingales, one-dimensional Brownian motion (BM), and the $D$-dimensional Bessel processes,…

The conformal loop ensemble (CLE) is the canonical conformally invariant probability measure on non-crossing loops in a simply connected domain in $\mathbb C$ and is indexed by a parameter $\kappa \in (8/3,8)$. We consider CLE$_\kappa$ on…

This paper develops a fractional stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) to model the evolution of a random tangent vector field on the unit sphere. The SPDE is governed by a fractional diffusion operator to model the L\'{e}vy-type…

What is the scaling limit of diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) in the plane? This is an old and famously difficult question. One can generalize the question in two ways: first, one may consider the {\em dielectric breakdown model}…

This manuscript explores the connections between a class of stochastic processes called "Stochastic Loewner Evolution" (SLE) and conformal field theory (CFT). First some important results are recalled which we utilise in the sequel, in…

Existence of Loewner trace is revisited. We identify finite energy paths (the "skeleton of Wiener measure") as natural class of regular drivers for which we find simple and natural estimates in terms of their (Cameron--Martin) norm.…
