We demonstrate how to obtain integrable results for the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) from Liouville conformal field theory (LCFT) and the mating-of-trees framework for Liouville quantum gravity (LQG). In particular, we prove an exact…

Whole-plane SLE$_\kappa$ is a random fractal curve between two points on the Riemann sphere. Zhan established for $\kappa \leq 4$ that whole-plane SLE$_\kappa$ is reversible, meaning invariant in law under conformal automorphisms swapping…

We give a new proof of the reversibility of the Schramm Loewner evolution for $\kappa \leq 4$. The main ideas used in the proof are similar to those used in the original proof of this result, given by Zhan.

We consider the measure on multiple chordal Schramm-Loewner evolution ($SLE_\kappa$) curves. We establish a derivative estimate and use it to give a direct proof that the partition function is $C^2$ if $\kappa<4$.

This paper examines how close the chordal $\SLE_\kappa$ curve gets to the real line asymptotically far away from its starting point. In particular, when $\kappa\in(0,4)$, it is shown that if $\beta>\beta_\kappa:=1/(8/\kappa-2)$, then the…

We consider the $\gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) model for $\gamma \in (0,2)$, formally described by $e^{\gamma h}$ where $h$ is a Gaussian free field on a planar domain $D$. Sheffield showed that when a certain type of LQG surface,…

As recently shown by Holden and two of the authors, the conformal welding of two Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) disks produces a canonical variant of SLE curve whose law is called the SLE loop measure. In this paper, we demonstrate how LQG…

Two-pointed quantum disks with a weight parameter $W>0$ is a canonical family of finite-volume random surfaces in Liouville quantum gravity. We extend the conformal welding of quantum disks in [AHS23] to the non-simple regime, and give a…

The Shcramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) is a correlated exploration process, in which for the chordal set up, the tip of the trace evolves in a self-avoiding manner towards the infinity. The resulting curves are named SLE$_{\kappa}$,…
