Exact expressions have been proposed for correlation functions of the large-$N$ (planar) limit of the $(1+1)$-dimensional ${\rm SU}(N)\times {\rm SU}(N)$ principal chiral sigma model. These were obtained with the form-factor bootstrap. The…
The covariant two-point functions, derived from Ward identities in direct space, can be affected by consistency problems and can become unbounded for large time- or space-separations. This difficulty arises for several extensions of…
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,…
Equations for correlation functions, here referred to as Reynolds- Kraichnan-Lewis equations (RKLE), are considered and their wide application is indicated. Perturbation and non-perturbation solutions are given. To elucidate a closure…
Stochastic partial differential equations can be used to model second order thermodynamical phase transitions, as well as a number of critical out-of-equilibrium phenomena. In (2+1) dimensions, many of these systems are conjectured (and…
In this note we consider the ansatz for Multiple Schramm-Loewner Evolutions (SLEs) proposed by Bauer, Bernard and Kytola from a more probabilistic point of view. Here we show their ansatz is a consequence of conformal invariance,…
We consider correlation functions of topologically twisted, $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group ${\rm SU}(2)$ and $N_f\leq 3$ massive hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. For a smooth, compact,…
Differential equations with convective terms such as the Burger's equation appear in many applications and have been the subject of intense research. In this paper we use a generalized form of Cole-Hopf transformation to relate the…
We extend the Euler-Bernoulli beam problem, formulated as a matrix string equation with a matrix-valued density, to a setting where the density takes values in a Clifford algebra, and we analyze its isospectral deformations. For discrete…
Classifications of $\rm{SL}(n)$ covariant function-valued valuations are established with some assumptions of continuity. New valuations, for example, weighted moment functions, are introduced and our classifications give unified…
Stochastic Loewner Evolution (SLE_kappa) has been introduced as a description of the continuum limit of cluster boundaries in two-dimensional critical systems. We show that the problem of N radial SLEs in the unit disc is equivalent to…
Various features of the two-parameter family of Schramm-Loewner evolutions SLE(\kappa,\rho) are studied. In particular, we derive certain restriction properties that lead to a ``strong duality'' conjecture, which is an identity in law…
We study the relationship between certain SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ processes, which are variants of the Schramm-Loewner evolution with parameter $\kappa$ in which one keeps track of an extra marked point, and Liouville quantum gravity (LQG).…
This article provides an introduction to Schramm(stochastic)-Loewner evolution (SLE) and to its connection with conformal field theory, from the point of view of its application to two-dimensional critical behaviour. The emphasis is on the…
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…
We discuss a certain Riemannian metric, related to the toric Kahler-Einstein equation, that is associated in a linearly-invariant manner with a given log-concave measure in R^n. We use this metric in order to bound the second derivatives of…
We discuss the partition function point of view for chordal Schramm-Loewner evolutions and their relationship with correlation functions in conformal field theory. Both are closely related to crossing probabilities and interfaces in…
Suppose that $\eta$ is a Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE$_\kappa$) in a smoothly bounded simply connected domain $D \subset {\mathbb C}$ and that $\phi$ is a conformal map from ${\mathbb D}$ to a connected component of $D \setminus…

This article employs Schramm-Loewner Evolution to obtain intersection exponents for several chordal $SLE_{8/3}$ curves in a wedge. As $SLE_{8/3}$ is believed to describe the continuum limit of self-avoiding walks, these exponents correspond…
