The two-dimensional Brownian loop-soup is a Poissonian random collection of loops in a planar domain with an intensity parameter c. When c is not greater than 1, we show that the outer boundaries of the loop clusters are disjoint simple…

We introduce a natural "massive" version of the Brownian loop soup of Lawler and Werner which displays conformal covariance and exponential decay. We show that this massive Brownian loop soup arises as the near-critical scaling limit of a…

We consider a planar Brownian loop $B$ that is run for a time $T$ and conditioned on the event that its range encloses the unusually high area of $\pi T^2$, with $T$ being large. We study the deviation of the range of the conditioned…

There is an essentially unique way to associate to any Riemann surface a measure on its simple loops, such that the collection of measures satisfy a strong conformal invariance property. Wendelin Werner constructed these random simple loops…

The invariance properties of Brownian motion are investigated and revisited within a recent Lie symmetry approach to stochastic differential equations. Some notable properties of the process can be recovered by a related integration by…

Let $\rho$ be compactly supported on $D \subset \mathbb R^2$. Endow $\mathbb R^2$ with the metric $e^{\rho}(dx_1^2 + dx_2^2)$. As $\delta \to 0$ the set of Brownian loops centered in $D$ with length at least $\delta$ has measure…

We give a direct construction of the conformally invariant measure on self-avoiding loops in Riemann surfaces (Werner measure) from chordal $\text{SLE}_{8/3}$. We give a new proof of uniqueness of the measure and use Schramm's formula to…

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…

We consider a family of free multiplicative Brownian motions $b_{s,\tau}$ parametrized by a real variance parameter $s$ and a complex covariance parameter $\tau.$ We compute the Brown measure $\mu_{s,\tau}$ of $ub_{s,\tau },$ where $u$ is a…

We show that if one conditions a cluster in a Brownian loop-soup $L$ (of any intensity) in a two-dimensional domain by a portion $l$ of its outer boundary, then in the remaining domain, the union of all the loops of $L$ that touch $l$…

Optimal sample path properties of stochastic processes often involve generalized H\"{o}lder- or variation norms. Following a classical result of Taylor, the exact variation of Brownian motion is measured in terms of $\psi (x) \equiv $…
