For $\gamma \in (0,2)$, the quantum disk and $\gamma$-quantum wedge are two of the most natural types of Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surfaces with boundary. These surfaces arise as scaling limits of finite and infinite random planar…
Let $Q$ be a free Boltzmann quadrangulation with simple boundary decorated by a critical ($p=3/4$) face percolation configuration. We prove that the chordal percolation exploration path on $Q$ between two marked boundary edges converges in…
We study the structure of the Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surfaces that are cut out as one explores a conformal loop-ensemble CLE$_{\kappa'}$ for $\kappa'$ in $(4,8)$ that is drawn on an independent $\gamma$-LQG surface for…
Sheffield showed that conformally welding a $\gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surface to itself gives a Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) curve with parameter $\kappa = \gamma^2$ as the interface, and Duplantier-Miller-Sheffield proved…
We consider a particular type of $\sqrt{8/3}$-Liouville quantum gravity surface called a doubly marked quantum disk (equivalently, a Brownian disk) decorated by an independent chordal SLE$_6$ curve $\eta$ between its marked boundary points.…
We show that when one draws a simple conformal loop ensemble (CLE$_\kappa$ for $\kappa \in (8/3,4)$) on an independent $\sqrt{\kappa}$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surface and explores the CLE in a natural Markovian way, the quantum…
Consider a critical ($\gamma=2$) Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) disk together with an independent conformal loop ensemble (CLE) with parameter $\kappa=4$. We show that the critical LQG surfaces parametrized by the regions enclosed by the…
There are many deep and useful theorems relating Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE$_\kappa$) and Liouville quantum gravity ($\gamma$-LQG) in the case when the parameters satisfy $\kappa \in \{\gamma^2, 16/\gamma^2\}$. Roughly speaking, these…
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).…
We prove that the SLE$_\kappa$ loop measure arises naturally from the conformal welding of two $\gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) disks for $\gamma^2 = \kappa \in (0,4)$. The proof relies on our companion work on conformal welding of…
The purpose of this article is threefold. First, we show that when one explores a conformal loop ensemble of parameter $\kappa=4$ ($\mathrm{CLE}_4$) on an independent $2$-Liouville quantum gravity ($2$-LQG) disk, the surfaces which are cut…
In a recent series of works, Miller and Sheffield constructed a metric on $\sqrt{8/3}$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) under which $\sqrt{8/3}$-LQG surfaces (e.g., the LQG sphere, wedge, cone, and disk) are isometric to their Brownian…
We establish the first relationship between Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) and Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) in the supercritical (a.k.a. strongly coupled) phase, which corresponds to central charge values $\mathbf c_{\mathrm L} \in…
In a groundbreaking work, Duplantier, Miller and Sheffield showed that subcritical Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) coupled with Schramm-Loewner evolutions (SLE) can be described by the mating of two continuum random trees. In this paper, we…

Recent works have shown that random triangulations decorated by critical ($p=1/2$) Bernoulli site percolation converge in the scaling limit to a $\sqrt{8/3}$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surface (equivalently, a Brownian surface)…
We give a simple set of geometric conditions on curves $\eta$, $\tilde{\eta}$ in ${\mathbf H}$ from $0$ to $\infty$ so that if $\varphi \colon {\mathbf H} \to {\mathbf H}$ is a homeomorphism which is conformal off $\eta$ with $\varphi(\eta)…
Let $\gamma \in (0,2)$ and let $h$ be the random distribution on $\mathbb C$ which describes a $\gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) cone. Also let $\kappa = 16/\gamma^2 >4$ and let $\eta$ be a whole-plane space-filling SLE$_\kappa$…
We consider the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE$_\kappa$) with $\kappa=4$, the critical value of $\kappa > 0$ at or below which SLE$_\kappa$ is a simple curve and above which it is self-intersecting. We show that the range of an SLE$_4$…
There is a simple way to "glue together" a coupled pair of continuum random trees (CRTs) to produce a topological sphere. The sphere comes equipped with a measure and a space-filling curve (which describes the "interface" between the…
