Conformal field theory of Gaussian free fields in a multiply connected domain

We implement a version of conformal field theory (CFT) that gives a connection to SLE in a multiply connected domain. Our approach is …

Some partial results on the convergence of loop-erased random walk to SLE(2) in the natural parametrization

We outline a strategy for showing convergence of loop-erased random walk on the $\mathbb{Z}^2$ square lattice to SLE(2), in the …

The Green function for the radial Schramm-Loewner evolution

We prove the existence of the Green function for radial SLE$(\kappa)$ for $\kappa < 8$. Unlike the chordal case where an explicit …

The covariant measure of SLE on the boundary

We construct a natural measure $\mu$ supported on the intersection of a chordal SLE$(\kappa)$ curve $\gamma$ with $\mathbb{R}$, in the …

Bridge decomposition of restriction measures

Motivated by Kesten’s bridge decomposition for two-dimensional self-avoiding walks in the upper half plane, we show that the …

Intersection probabilities for a chordal SLE path and a semicircle

We derive a number of estimates for the probability that a chordal SLE$(\kappa)$ path in the upper half plane $\mathbb{H}$ intersects a …
