In addition to conformal weldings $\varphi$, simple curves $\gamma$ growing in the upper half plane generate driving functions $\xi$ and hitting times $\tau$ through Loewner's differential equation. While the Loewner transform $\gamma…
In this paper we study the dynamical behaviour of a simple cosmological model defined by a spatially flat Robertson-Walker geometry, conformally coupled with a massive scalar field. We determine a Lyapunov-like function for the non-linear…
We construct a conformally invariant random family of closed curves in the plane by welding of random homeomorphisms of the unit circle. The homeomorphism is constructed using the exponential of $\beta X$ where $X$ is the restriction of 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…
We study one-parameter curves on the universal Teichm\"uller space $T$ and on the homogeneous space $M=\Diff S^1/\Rot S^1$ embedded into $T$. As a result, we deduce evolution equations for conformal maps that admit quasiconformal extensions…
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 describe Stochastic Loewner Evolution on arbitrary Riemann surfaces with boundary using Conformal Field Theory methods. We propose in particular a CFT construction for a probability measure on (clouded) paths, and check it against known…
Precise asymptotics for Christoffel functions are established for power type weights on unions of Jordan curves and arcs. The asymptotics involve the equilibrium measure of the support of the measure. The result at the endpoints of arc…
We study deterministic Loewner evolutions on the complex plane driven by complex-valued functions. This model can be viewed as a generalization of real-driven Loewner evolutions in the upper half-plane, or as the deterministic analogue of…
Among various methods of finding accessory parameters in the Schwarz-Christoffel integrals, Kufarev's method, based on the Loewner differential equation, plays an important role. It is used for describing one-parameter families of functions…
We present sufficient conditions so that a conformal map between planar domains whose boundary components are Jordan curves or points has a continuous or homeomorphic extension to the closures of the domains. Our conditions involve the…
We derive the variational formula of the Loewner driving function of a simple chord under infinitesimal quasiconformal deformations with Beltrami coefficients supported away from the chord. As an application, we obtain the first variation…
We study the asymptotic limit of the Cahn-Hilliard equation on an evolving surface with prescribed velocity. The method of formally matched asymptotic expansions is extended to account for the movement of the domain. We consider various…
We study relationships between the asymptotic behaviour of a non-elliptic semigroup of holomorphic self-maps of the unit disk and the geometry of its planar domain (the image of the Koenigs function). We establish a sufficient condition for…
Using concepts of noncommutative probability we show that the Loewner's evolution equation can be viewed as providing a map from paths of measures to paths of probability measures. We show that the fixed point of the Loewner map is the…
We describe the asymptotic behavior of the mapping function at an analytic cusp compared with Kaiser's results for cusps with small perturbation of angles and the known explicit formulae for cusps with circular boundary curves. We propose a…
We develop a new method for studying the asymptotics of symmetric polynomials of representation-theoretic origin as the number of variables tends to infinity. Several applications of our method are presented: We prove a number of theorems…
We derive the anomalous conformal Ward identities for ${\cal N}=4$ SYM Wilson loops on polygon-like contours with edges formed by circular arcs. With a suitable choice of parameterisation they are very similarly to those for local…
We consider a homotopic evolution in the space of smooth shapes starting from the unit circle. Based on the Loewner-Kufarev equation we give a Hamiltonian formulation of this evolution and provide conservation laws. The symmetries of the…
We study the asymptotic behaviors of solutions of the Loewner-Nirenberg problem in singular domains and prove that the solutions are well approximated by the corresponding solutions in tangent cones at singular points on the boundary. The…
