We give a direct construction of the conformally invariant measure on self-avoiding loops in Riemann surfaces (Werner measure) from chordal $\text{SLE}_{8/3}$. We give a new proof of uniqueness of the measure and use Schramm's formula to…
We show that there exists a unique (up to multiplication by constants) and natural measure on simple loops in the plane and on each Riemann surface, such that the measure is conformally invariant and also invariant under restriction (i.e.…
We formulate a classification conjecture for conformally invariant families of measures on simple loops that builds on a conjecture of Kontsevich and Suhov. The main example in this class of objects was constructed by Werner as boundaries…
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…
There is an essentially unique way to associate to any Riemann surface a measure on its simple loops, such that the collection of measures satisfy a strong conformal invariance property. Wendelin Werner constructed these random simple loops…
In this note, we establish an expression of the Loewner energy of a Jordan curve on the Riemann sphere in terms of Werner's measure on simple loops of SLE$_{8/3}$ type. The proof is based on a formula for the change of the Loewner energy…
Our construction of the Wiener measure on $\mathfrak{C}$ consists in first defining a set function $\varphi$\ on the class of all compact sets based on certain $n$-dimensional normal distributions, $n = 1,\ 2,\ldots$\ using the structural…
In this paper we give a general family of conformal invariants associated to bordered Riemann surfaces endowed with boundary parametrizations, or equivalently compact surfaces endowed with conformal maps. Each invariant is specified by a…
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…
The unique off-shell fermionic gauge invariance of a vector-spinor field theory is found, and the invariant action is derived. The latter is Weyl invariant in any dimension in the massless limit, and it coincides with the singular point of…
We provide a framework to derive a variational formulation for $-\log\mathbb{E}_\nu\left[e^{-f}\right]$ for a large class of measures $\nu$. We use a family of perturbations of the identity $(W^u)$ whose invertibility we characterize thanks…
We introduce several methods to define the self-inductance of a single loop as the regularization of divergent integrals which we obtain by applying Neumann (or Weber) formula for the mutual inductance of a pair of loops to the case when…
We present a simple, systematic and practical method to construct conformally invariant equations in arbitrary Riemann spaces. This method that we call "Weyl-to-Riemann" is based on two features of Weyl geometry. i) A Weyl space is defined…
Our construction of the Wiener measure on $\textbf{C}=\textbf{C}[0, \infty)$ consists in first defining a set function $\varphi$\ on the class of all compact sets based on certain $n$-dimensional normal distributions, $n = 1,\ 2,\ldots$\…
This paper initiates the study of the conformal field theory of the SLE$_\kappa$ loop measure $\nu$ for $\kappa\in(0,4]$, the range where the loop is almost surely simple. First, we construct two commuting representations…
It is shown that the self inductance of a wire loop may be written as a curve integral akin to the Neumann formula for the mutual inductance of two wire loops. The only difference is that contributions where the two integration variables…
The super Weil-Petersson metric defined over the moduli space of smooth super curves produces a natural measure over the moduli space of smooth curves. The construction of the measure uses the extra data of a spin structure on each smooth…
The latest measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a^{}_{\mu} \equiv (g^{}_\mu - 2)/2$ at the Fermi Laboratory has found a $4.2\,\sigma$ discrepancy with the theoretical prediction of the Standard Model (SM). Motivated by this…
A manifestly gauge invariant and regularized renormalization group flow equation is constructed for pure SU(N) gauge theory in the large N limit. In this way we make precise and concrete the notion of a non-perturbative gauge invariant…
