We prove that for almost every Brownian motion sample, the corresponding SLE(\kappa) curves parameterized by capacity exist and change continuously in the supremum norm when \kappa varies in the interval [0,\kappa_0), where…

Studying SLE$_{\kappa}$ on $S^2$ provides a new and interesting perspective for the conformality of some 2-dimensional physical models. We prove the existence and some basic properties of the spherical Minkowski content of SLE$_{\kappa}$,…

Let $a\in (0,\infty)$. For a spectrally negative L\'evy process $X$ with infinite variation paths the resolvent of the process killed on hitting the two-point set $V=\{-a,a\}$ is identified. When further $X$ has no diffusion component the…

We introduce and compute the generalized disconnection exponents $\eta_\kappa(\beta)$ which depend on $\kappa\in(0,4]$ and another real parameter $\beta$, extending the Brownian disconnection exponents (corresponding to $\kappa=8/3$)…

We consider critical percolation on the triangular lattice in a bounded simply connected domain with boundary conditions that force an interface between two prescribed boundary points. We say the interface forms a "near-loop" when it comes…

Multiple Schramm-Loewner Evolutions (SLE) are conformally invariant random processes of several curves, whose construction by growth processes relies on partition functions: M\"obius covariant solutions to a system of second order partial…

This is an introductory account of the emergence of conformal invariance in the scaling limit of planar critical percolation. We give an exposition of Smirnov's theorem (2001) on the conformal invariance of crossing probabilities in site…

We aim at finding the reversal of radial SLE and proving the reversibility of whole-plane SLE. For this purpose, we define annulus SLE$(\kappa,\Lambda)$ processes in doubly connected domains with one marked boundary point. We derive some…

Let t be the first-passage time of a continuous barrier by a c{\`a}dl{\`a}g adapted process. We show that t admits a canonical fourfold pathwise decomposition into continuous contact, contact from the left followed by an upward jump, exact…

We use the lace expansion to give a simple proof that the critical two-point function for weakly self-avoiding walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ has decay $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ in dimensions $d>4$. The proof uses elementary Fourier analysis and the…

The mating of trees approach to Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) in the random geometry of Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) has been recently developed by Duplantier-Miller-Sheffield (2014). In this paper we consider the mating of trees…

We prove existence (and simpleness) of the trace for both forward and backward Loewner chains under fairly general conditions on semimartingale drivers. As an application, we show that stochastic Komatu-Loewner evolutions SKLE$_{\alpha,b}$…

In this paper, we present a complete proof of the construction of graphs with bounded valency such that the simple random walk has a return probability at time $n$ at the origin of order $exp(-n^{\alpha}),$ for fixed $\alpha \in [0,1[$ and…

We find explicit formulas for the probabilities of general boundary visit events for planar loop-erased random walks, as well as connectivity events for branches in the uniform spanning tree. We show that both probabilities, when suitably…

We prove that for $\kappa\in(0,8)$, if $(\eta_1,\eta_2)$ is a $2$-SLE$_\kappa$ pair in a simply connected domain $D$ with an analytic boundary point $z_0$, then $\lim_{r\to 0^+}r^{-\alpha} \mathbb{P}[\mbox{dist}(z_0,\eta_j)<r,j=1,2]$…

We prove that SLE$_\kappa$ for $\kappa \in (4,8)$ on an independent $\gamma=4/\sqrt{\kappa}$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surface is uniquely characterized by the form of its LQG boundary length process and the form of the conditional…

Schramm Loewner Evolutions (SLE) are random increasing hulls defined through the Loewner equation driven by Brownian motion. It is known that the increasing hulls are generated by continuous curves. When the driving process is of the form…

The scaling limit of the spin cluster boundaries of the Ising model with domain wall boundary conditions is SLE with kappa=3. We hypothesise that the three-state Potts model with appropriate boundary conditions has spin cluster boundaries…

The fractal structure and scaling properties of a 2d slice of the 3d Ising model is studied using Monte Carlo techniques. The percolation transition of geometric spin (GS) clusters is found to occur at the Curie point, reflecting the…

Let $Q$ be a finite subgraph of the integer grid $G$ in the plane, and let $T$ be a set of pairs of distinct vertices in $G$, called `terminal pairs'. Escaping a subset $X\subset T\cap Q$ from $Q$ means finding edge disjoint paths from the…
