Simple conformal loop ensembles (CLE) are a class of random collection of simple non-intersecting loops that are of particular interest in the study of conformally invariant systems. Among other things related to these CLEs, we prove the…

In this article, we generalize known formulas for crossing probabilities. Prior crossing results date back to J. Cardy's prediction of a formula for the probability that a percolation cluster in two dimensions connects the left and right…

SLE$_{\kappa}(\rho)$ is a variant of SLE$_{\kappa}$ where $\rho$ characterizes the repulsion (if $\rho>0$) or attraction $(\rho<0)$ from the boundary. This paper examines the probabilities of SLE$_{\kappa}(\rho)$ to get close to the…

In a previous article, we define "connectivity weights" to be functions with these two properties: 1) They solve the three conformal Ward identities of conformal field theory (CFT) and a system of $2N$ null-state differential equations…

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…

The probability that a point is to one side of a curve in Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) can be obtained alternatively using boundary conformal field theory (BCFT). We extend the BCFT approach to treat two curves, forming, for example, the…

We prove that in the scaling limit, the crossing probabilities of multiple interfaces in the critical planar Ising model with alternating boundary conditions are conformally invariant expressions given by the pure partition functions of…

We give estimates for the probability that a chordal, radial or two-sided radial SLE$_\kappa$ curve retreats far from its terminal point after coming close to it, for $\kappa \leq 4$. The estimates are uniform over all initial segments of…

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$_4$…

The large-scale behavior of two-dimensional critical percolation is expected to be described by a conformal field theory (CFT). Moreover, this putative CFT is believed to be of the logarithmic type, exhibiting logarithmic corrections to the…

The O(n) spin model in two dimensions may equivalently be formulated as a loop model, and then mapped to a height model which is conjectured to flow under the renormalization group to a conformal field theory (CFT). At the critical point,…

We consider a uniform spanning tree in a $\delta$-square grid approximation of a planar domain $\Omega$. For given integer $n\ge 2$, we condition the tree on the following $n$-arm event: we pick $n$ branches, emanating from $n$ points…

This article pertains to the classification of multiple Schramm-Loewner evolutions (SLE). We construct the pure partition functions of multiple SLE$(\kappa)$ with $\kappa \in (0,4]$ and relate them to certain extremal multiple SLE measures,…

We study some conformally invariant dynamic ways to construct the Conformal Loop Ensembles with simple loops introduced in earlier papers by Sheffield, and by Sheffield and Werner. One outcome is a conformally invariant way to measure a…

We study a D3-D5 system dual to a conformal field theory with a codimension-one defect that separates regions where the ranks of the gauge groups differ by $k$. With the help of this additional parameter, as observed by Nagasaki, Tanida and…

This is the second of two papers devoted to the proof of conformal invariance of the critical double random current on the square lattice. More precisely, we show convergence of loop ensembles obtained by taking the cluster boundaries in…

It is widely believed that the scaling limit of self-avoiding walks (SAWs) at the critical temperature is (i) conformally invariant, and (ii) describable by Schramm-Loewner Evolution (SLE) with parameter $\kappa = 8/3.$ We consider SAWs in…

Let $G$ be a graph, $C$ a longest cycle in $G$ and $\overline{p}$, $\overline{c}$ the lengths of a longest path and a longest cycle in $G\backslash C$, respectively. Almost all lower bounds for the circumference base on a standard…

We compute lattice correlation functions for the model of critical dense polymers on a semi-infinite cylinder of perimeter $n$. In the lattice loop model, contractible loops have a vanishing fugacity whereas non-contractible loops have a…

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…
