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$_{\alpha,b}$…
Schramm Loewner Evolutions (SLE) are random increasing hulls defined through the Loewner equation driven by Brownian motion. It is known that the increasing hulls are generated by continuous curves. When the driving process is of the form…
We consider the chordal Loewner differential equation for multiple slits in the upper half-plane and relations between the pointwise H\"older continuity of the driving functions and the generated hulls. The first result generalizes a result…
Standard stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE) is driven by a continuous Brownian motion, which then produces a continuous fractal trace. If jumps are added to the driving function, the trace branches. We consider a generalized SLE driven by a…
We study the Loewner evolution whose driving function is $W_t = B_t^1 + i B_t^2$, where $(B^1,B^2)$ is a pair of Brownian motions with a given covariance matrix. This model can be thought of as a generalization of Schramm-Loewner evolution…
The development of Schramm--Loewner evolution (SLE) as the scaling limits of discrete models from statistical physics makes direct simulation of SLE an important task. The most common method, suggested by Marshall and Rohde \cite{MR05}, is…
SLE is a random growth process based on Loewner's equation with driving parameter a one-dimensional Brownian motion running with speed $\kappa$. This process is intimately connected with scaling limits of percolation clusters and with the…
Consider the Loewner equation associated to the upper-half plane. Normally this equation is driven by a real-valued function. In this paper, we show that when the driving function is complex-valued with small $1/2$-H\"older norm, the…
The Loewner equation encrypts a growing simple curve in the plane into a real-valued driving function. We show that if the driving function $\lambda$ is in $C^{\beta}$ with $\beta>2$ (or real analytic) then the Loewner curve is in $C^{\beta…
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…
In this study, we investigate the relationship between the one-dimensional (1D) Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation and the stochastic Loewner equation (SLE), which is a one parameter family of the conformal mappings involving stochasticity.…
Questions regarding the continuity in $\kappa$ of the $SLE_{\kappa}$ traces and maps appear very naturally in the study of SLE. In order to study the first question, we consider a natural coupling of SLE traces: for different values of…
In this paper, we define and study Loewner chains and evolution families on finitely multiply-connected domains in the complex plane. These chains and families consist of conformal mappings on parallel slit half-planes and have one and two…
Growth fronts of slime molds are characterized through a direct geometric analysis based on Loewner evolutions, using experimentally acquired time-resolved images. The associated Loewner driving functions reconstructed from expanding…
We show that, under mild assumptions on the limiting curve, a sequence of simple chordal planar curves converges uniformly whenever certain Loewner driving functions converge. We extend this result to random curves. The random version…
We analyze Loewner traces driven by functions asymptotic to K\sqrt{1-t}. We prove a stability result when K is not 4 and show that K=4 can lead to non locally connected hulls. As a consequence, we obtain a driving term \lambda(t) so that…
Let $D={\mathbb H} \setminus \cup_{k=1}^N C_k$ be a standard slit domain, where ${\mathbb H}$ is the upper half plane and $C_k$, $1\leq k\leq N$, are mutually disjoint horizontal line segments in $H$. Given a Jordan arc $\gamma\subset D$…
Let $\lambda:[0,+\infty)\mapsto\mathbb{R}$ be the driving function of a chordal Loewner process. In this paper we find new conditions on $\lambda$ which imply that the process is generated by a simple curve. This result improves former one…
Standard Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) is driven by a continuous Brownian motion which then produces a trace, a continuous fractal curve connecting the singular points of the motion. If jumps are added to the driving function, the trace…
We review two numerical methods related to the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE). The first simulates SLE itself. More generally, it finds the curve in the half-plane that results from the Loewner equation for a given driving function. The…
