Stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE) is a differential equation driven by a one-dimensional Brownian motion (BM), whose solution gives a stochastic process of conformal transformation on the upper half complex-plane $\H$. As an evolutionary…

We use SLE(6) paths to construct a process of continuum nonsimple loops in the plane and prove that this process coincides with the full continuum scaling limit of 2D critical site percolation on the triangular lattice -- that is, the…

We present a new proof of $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ decay of critical two-point functions for spread-out statistical mechanical models on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ above the upper critical dimension, based on the lace expansion and assuming appropriate…

We prove that, for $\kappa\in(0,4)$ and $\rho\ge (\kappa-4)/2$, the chordal SLE$(\kappa;\rho)$ trace started from $(0;0^+)$ or $(0;0^-)$ satisfies the reversibility property. And we obtain the equation for the reversal of the chordal…

SLE(kappa; rho), a generalization of chordal Schramm-L\"owner evolution (SLE), is discussed from the point of view of statistical mechanics and conformal field theory (CFT). Certain ratios of CFT correlation functions are shown to be…

In the first part of this paper, we enumerate exactly walks on the square lattice that start from the origin, but otherwise avoid the non positive horizontal half-axis. We call them "walks on the slit plane". We count them by their length,…

We review two numerical methods related to the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE). The first simulates SLE itself. More generally, it finds the curve in the half-plane that results from the Loewner equation for a given driving function. The…

Researching elliptic analogues for equalities and formulas is a new trend in enumerative combinatorics which has followed the previous trend of studying $q$-analogues. Recently Schlosser proposed a lattice path model in the square lattice…

We derive boundary arm exponents for SLE. Combining with the convergence of critical lattice models to SLE, these exponents would give the alternating half-plane arm exponents for the corresponding lattice models.

We define radial exploration processes from $a$ to $b$ and from $b$ to $a$ in a domain $D$ of hexagons where $a$ is a boundary point and $b$ is an interior point. We prove the reversibility: the time-reversal of the process from $b$ to $a$…

Length-constrained expander decompositions are a new graph decomposition that has led to several recent breakthroughs in fast graph algorithms. Roughly, an $(h, s)$-length $\phi$-expander decomposition is a small collection of length…

We derive boundary arm exponents and interior arm exponents for SLE$(\kappa)$. Combining with the possible convergence of critical lattice models to SLE, these exponents would give the corresponding alternating half-plane arm exponents and…

We study the fractal properties of interfaces in the 2d Ashkin-Teller model. The fractal dimension of the symmetric interfaces is calculated along the critical line of the model in the interval between the Ising and the four-states Potts…

Simmons and Cardy recently predicted a formula for the probability that the chordal SLE(8/3) path passes to the left of two points in the upper half-plane. In this paper we give a rigorous proof of their formula. Starting from this result,…

We show numerically that critical exponents for two-point interchain correlation of an infinite chain characterize those of finite chains in Self-Avoiding Walk (SAW) and Self-Avoiding Polygon (SAP) under a topological constraint. We…

Near a bifurcation point a system experiences critical slowing down. This leads to scaling behavior of fluctuations. We find that a periodically driven system may display three scaling regimes and scaling crossovers near a saddle-node…

We present an algorithm, based on the iteration of conformal maps, that produces independent samples of self-avoiding paths in the plane. It is a discrete process approximating radial Schramm-Loewner evolution growing to infinity. We focus…

We consider a transient diffusion in a $(-\kappa/2)$-drifted Brownian potential $W\_{\kappa}$ with $0\textless{}\kappa\textless{}1$. We prove its localization at time $t$ in the neighborhood of some random points depending only on the…
