We study random $k$-connected chordal graphs with bounded tree-width. Our main results are scaling limits and quenched local limits.

We consider the field theory of $N$ massless bosons which are free except for an interaction localized on the boundary of their 1+1 dimensional world. The boundary action is the sum of two pieces: a periodic potential and a coupling to a…

We show that, for $\kappa\in(0,8)$, the integral of the laws of two-sided radial SLE$_\kappa$ curves through different interior points against a measure with SLE$_\kappa$ Green function density is the law of a chordal SLE$_\kappa$ curve,…

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…

Consider an instance $h$ of the Gaussian free field on a simply connected planar domain with boundary conditions $-\lambda$ on one boundary arc and $\lambda$ on the complementary arc, where $\lambda$ is the special constant $\sqrt{\pi/8}$.…

We study a one parameter family of discrete Loewner evolutions driven by a random walk on the real line. We show that it converges to the stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE) under rescaling. We show that the discrete Loewner evolution…

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold, smoothly triangulated by a simplicial complex $K$, and $\cA$ a transitive Lie algebroid on $M$. The Lie algebroid restriction of $\cA$ to a simplex $\Delta$ of $K$ is denoted by $\cA^{!!}_{\Delta}$. A piecewise…

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…

The main object of this work is the top-dimensional Laplacian operator of a simplicial complex $K$. We study its spectral limiting behavior under a given non-trivial subdivision procedure $\text{div}$. It will be shown that in case…

Loewner chains with Levy drivers have been proposed as models for random dendritic growth in two dimensions, and as candidates for finding extremal multifractal spectra in problems in classical function theory. These processes are not…

We resolve a conjecture of Sheffield that $\SLE(4)$, a conformally invariant random curve, is the universal limit of the chordal zero-height contours of random surfaces with isotropic, uniformly convex potentials. Specifically, we study the…

In recent work we have shown that loop-erased random walk (LERW) connecting two boundary points of a domain converges to the chordal Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE(2)) in the sense of curves parametrized by Minkowski content. In this note…

In this paper we give a physical interpretation of the probability of a Stochastic Loewner Evolution (SLE) trace approaching a marked point in the upper half plane, e.g. on another trace. Our approach is based on the concept of fusion of…

Stochastic Loewner evolution also called Schramm Loewner evolution (abbreviated, SLE) is a rigorous tool in mathematics and statistical physics for generating and studying scale invariant or fractal random curves in two dimensions. The…

Random skew plane partitions of large size distributed according to an appropriately scaled Schur process develop limit shapes. In the present work we consider the limit of large random skew plane partitions where the inner boundary…

We numerically show that the statistical properties of the shortest path on critical percolation clusters are consistent with the ones predicted for Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) curves for $\kappa=1.04\pm0.02$. The shortest path results…

We analyze the problem of approximating a smooth quantum waveguide with a quantum graph. We consider a planar curve with compactly supported curvature and a strip of constant width around the curve. We rescale the curvature and the width in…

We study SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ curves, with $\kappa$ and $\rho$ chosen so that the curves hit the boundary. More precisely, we study the sets on which the curves collide with the boundary at a prescribed "angle" and determine the almost sure…

We study a regularized version of Hastings-Levitov planar random growth that models clusters formed by the aggregation of diffusing particles. In this model, the growing clusters are defined in terms of iterated slit maps whose capacities…
