Appreciation of Stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE$_\kappa$), as a powerful tool to check for conformal invariant properties of geometrical features of critical systems has been rising. In this paper we use this method to check conformal…
In previous work [AHP24], we proved a finite-time large deviation principle in the Hausdorff metric for multiradial Schramm-Loewner evolution, SLE$(\kappa)$, as $\kappa \to 0$, with good rate function being the multiradial Loewner energy.…
The conjecture that the scaling limit of the two-dimensional self-avoiding walk (SAW) in a half plane is given by the stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE) with $\kappa=8/3$ leads to explicit predictions about the SAW. A remarkable feature of…
We derive a surprising correspondence between SLE$_{\kappa}(\rho)$ processes and light cones of the Gaussian free field (GFF). Recall that (one-sided, chordal, origin-seeded) SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ processes are in some sense the simplest and…
We prove the super-exponential decay of probabilities that there exist $n$ crossings of a given quadrilateral in a simple $\text{CLE}_\kappa(\Omega)$, $\frac{8}{3}<\kappa\le 4$, as $n$ goes to infinity. Besides being of independent…
The present paper is concerned with properties of multiple Schramm--Loewner evolutions (SLEs) labelled by a parameter $\kappa\in (0,8]$. Specifically, we consider the solution of the multiple Loewner equation driven by a time change of…
We prove that, for $\kappa\le 4$, backward chordal SLE$_\kappa$ admits backward chordal SLE$_\kappa(-4,-4)$ decomposition for the capacity parametrization. This means that, for any bounded measurable subset $U\subset Q_4:={\mathbb…
We derive some geometric properties of chordal SLE$(\kappa;\vec{\rho})$ processes. Using these results and the method of coupling two SLE processes, we prove that the outer boundary of the final hull of a chordal SLE$(\kappa;\vec{\rho})$…
We derive the exact value of intersection exponents between planar Brownian motions or random walks, confirming predictions from theoretical physics by Duplantier and Kwon. Let B and B' be independent Brownian motions (or simple random…
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…
These notes survey the first results on large deviations of Schramm-Loewner evolutions (SLE) with emphasis on interrelations between rate functions and applications to complex analysis. More precisely, we describe the large deviations of…
Square ice is a statistical mechanics model for two-dimensional ice, widely believed to have a conformally invariant scaling limit. We associate a Peano (space filling) curve to a square ice configuration, and more generally to a so-called…
Numerical studies of fractal curves in the plane often focus on subtle geometrical properties such as their left passage probability. Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) is a mathematical framework which makes explicit predictions for such…
Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE$_\kappa$) is classically studied via Loewner evolution with half-plane capacity parametrization, driven by $\sqrt{\kappa}$ times Brownian motion. This yields a (half-plane) valued random field $\gamma = \gamma…
The aim of this article is to present a growth-fragmentation process naturally embedded in a Brownian excursion from boundary to apex in a cone of angle $2\pi/3$. This growth-fragmentation process corresponds, via the so-called…
The Rohde--Schramm theorem states that Schramm--Loewner Evolution with parameter $\kappa$ (or SLE$_\kappa$ for short) exists as a random curve, almost surely, if $\kappa \neq 8$. Here we give a new and concise proof of the result, based on…
We improve the geometric properties of SLE$(\kappa;\vec{\rho})$ processes derived in an earlier paper, which are then used to obtain more results about the duality of SLE. We find that for $\kappa\in (4,8)$, the boundary of a standard…
We conjecture a relationship between the scaling limit of the fixed-length ensemble of self-avoiding walks in the upper half plane and radial SLE with kappa=8/3 in this half plane from 0 to i. The relationship is that if we take a curve…
We compute the almost-sure Hausdorff dimension of the double points of chordal SLE_kappa for kappa > 4, confirming a prediction of Duplantier-Saleur (1989) for the contours of the FK model. We also compute the dimension of the cut points of…
The smart kinetic self-avoiding walk (SKSAW) is a random walk which never intersects itself and grows forever when run in the full-plane. At each time step the walk chooses the next step uniformly from among the allowable nearest neighbors…
