The Brownian map is a random sphere-homeomorphic metric measure space obtained by "gluing together" the continuum trees described by the $x$ and $y$ coordinates of the Brownian snake. We present an alternative "breadth-first" construction…

We give an explicit construction of the Brownian sphere biased by the distance between two distinguished points, which is based on the Miermont bijection for quadrangulations. We then describe various conditionings of this object, which are…

In this last decade, an important stochastic model emerged: the Brownian map. It is the limit of various models of random combinatorial maps after rescaling: it is a random metric space with Hausdorff dimension 4, almost surely homeomorphic…

We introduce and study a universal model of random geometry in two dimensions. To this end, we start from a discrete graph drawn on the sphere, which is chosen uniformly at random in a certain class of graphs with a given size $n$, for…

The Brownian map is a model of random geometry on the sphere and as such an important object in probability theory and physics. It has been linked to Liouville Quantum Gravity and much research has been devoted to it. One open question asks…

The Brownian tree, also known as the continuum random tree, is a canonical random compact, geodesic $\mathbf R$-tree that arises as the universal scaling limit for numerous models of discrete random trees. A key quasisymmetric invariant of…

For the directed landscape, the putative universal space-time scaling limit object in the (1+1) dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class, consider the geodesic tree -- the tree formed by the coalescing semi-infinite…

We provide a new construction of the Brownian disks, which have been defined by Bettinelli and Miermont as scaling limits of quadrangulations with a boundary when the boundary size tends to infinity. Our method is very similar to the…

In this paper, the scaling limit of random connected cubic planar graphs (respectively multigraphs) is shown to be the Brownian sphere. The proof consists in essentially two main steps. First, thanks to the known decomposition of cubic…

We consider random genus-0 hyperbolic surfaces $\mathcal{S}_n$ with $n + 1$ punctures, sampled according to the Weil-Petersson measure. We show that, after rescaling the metric by $n^{-1/4}$, the surface $\mathcal{S}_n$ converges in…

We introduce the model of two-dimensional continuous random interlacements, which is constructed using the Brownian trajectories conditioned on not hitting a fixed set (usually, a disk). This model yields the local picture of Wiener sausage…

Random planar maps are considered in the physics literature as the discrete counterpart of random surfaces. It is conjectured that properly rescaled random planar maps, when conditioned to have a large number of faces, should converge to a…

Coalescing simple random walks in the plane form an infinite tree. A natural directed distance on this tree is given by the number of jumps between branches when one is only allowed to move in one direction. The Brownian web distance is the…

We study a configuration model on bipartite planar maps in which, given $n$ even integers, one samples a planar map with $n$ faces uniformly at random with these face degrees. We prove that when suitably rescaled, such maps always admit…
