This paper introduces a novel class of fair and interpolatory curves called $p\kappa$-curves. These curves are comprised of smoothly stitched B\'ezier curve segments, where the curvature distribution of each segment is made to closely…

We study curve-shortening flow for twisted curves in $\mathbb{R}^3$ (i.e., curves with nowhere vanishing curvature $\kappa$ and torsion $\tau$) and define a notion of torsion-curvature entropy. Using this functional, we show that either the…

Appreciation of Stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE$_\kappa$), as a powerful tool to check for conformal invariant properties of geometrical features of critical systems has been rising. In this paper we use this method to check conformal…

In this note, we prove a version of the conjectured duality of Schramm-Loewner Evolutions, by establishing exact identities in distribution between some boundary arcs of chordal $\SLE_\kappa$, $\kappa>4$, and appropriate versions of…

Stochastic Loewner Evolutions (SLE) with a multiple sqrt(kappa)B of Brownian motion B as driving process are random planar curves (if kappa<=4) or growing compact sets generated by a curve (if kappa>4). We consider here more general Levy…

We study the connection between transport phenomenon and escape rate statistics in two-dimensional standard map. For the purpose of having an open phase space, we let the momentum co-ordinate vary freely and restrict only angle with…

The natural paramterization or length for the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE{\kappa}) is the candidate for the scaling limit of the length of discrete curves for \kappa < 8. We improve the proof of the existence of the parametrization and…

We consider averages $\kappa$ of spectral measures of rank one perturbations with respect to a $\sigma$-finite measure $\nu$. It is examined how various degrees of continuity of $\nu$ with respect to $\alpha$-dimensional Hausdorff measures…

We compute analytically the probability distribution function ${\cal P}(\epsilon)$ of the dissipation field $\epsilon =(\nabla \theta)^{2}$ of a passive scalar $\theta$ advected by a $d$-dimensional random flow, in the limit of large Peclet…

We address the scaling limits of random curves arising from, e.g., planar lattice models, especially in rough domains. The well-known precompactness conditions of Kemppainen and Smirnov show that certain crossing probability estimates…

We find explicit formulas for the probabilities of general boundary visit events for planar loop-erased random walks, as well as connectivity events for branches in the uniform spanning tree. We show that both probabilities, when suitably…

We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the trace of SLE_6 is almost surely 7/4 and give a more direct derivation of the result (due to Lawler-Schramm-Werner) that the dimension of its boundary is 4/3. We also prove that, for all \kappa<8,…

Let p(w) denote the probability that four random circular caps of angular radius 70deg<w<90deg cover the unit sphere S^2. An exact expression for p(w) is unknown. We give nontrivial lower bounds for p(w) when w>84deg; no improvement on the…

Using the estimate of the difference between the discrete harmonic function and its corresponding continuous version we derive a rate of convergence of the Loewner driving function for the harmonic explorer to the Brownian motion with speed…

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 study the gradient flow for a relaxed approximation to the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence between a moving source and a fixed target distribution. This approximation, termed the KALE (KL approximate lower-bound estimator), solves a…

The scaling of the tails of the probability of a system to percolate only in the horizontal direction $\pi_{hs}$ was investigated numerically for correlated site-bond percolation model for $q=1,2,3,4$.We have to demonstrate that the tails…

A L\'evy process is said to creep through a curve if, at its first passage time across this curve, the process reaches it with positive probability. We first study this property for bivariate subordinators. Given the graph…

BES II data for J/Psi->K*(890)Kpi reveal a strong kappa peak in the Kpi S-wave near threshold. Both magnitude and phase are determined in slices of Kpi mass by interferences with strong Ko(1430), K1(1270) and K1(1400) signals. The phase…

We investigate the extent to which the probabilistic properties of a chaotic scattering system with dissipation can be understood from the properties of the dissipation-free system. For large energies $E$, a fully chaotic scattering leads…
