چکیده
in this short review we look at recent advances in schramm-loewner evolution (sle) theory and its application to critical phenomena. the application of sle goes beyond critical systems to other time dependent, scale invariant phenomena such as turbulence, sand-piles and watersheds. through the use of sle, the evolution of conformally invariant paths on the complex plane can be followed; hence a geometrical interpretation is acquired for domain walls in critical phenomena. also advances made on rigorous mathematical proofs in particular for the ising and percolation models are noteworthy, giving rise to rigorous results in critical phenomena. on the other hand; application of numerical techniques to sle for systems far from equilibrium such as surface growth has yielded interesting new results. for example it has yielded results regarding the universality class of certain models which have all been thought to belong to the class of kardar-parisi-zhang model. in this short review we will present some of these results.

متن کاملIntroduction to Schramm–Loewner evolutions
we mean an equivalence class of paths modulo reparametrizations. Write CD for the set of chords in D. Given a path γ, we write [γ] for the associated chord; more generally, if γ is a continuous map from any compact subinterval I of [0,∞] to Û , starting at z0 and ending at z1, we can obtain a chord [γ] in D by choosing an increasing homeomorphism φ : [0, 1] → I and setting [γ] = [γ ◦ φ]. Write ...
متن کاملLectures on Schramm–Loewner Evolution
These notes are based on a course given to Masters students in Cambridge. Their scope is the basic theory of Schramm–Loewner evolution, together with some underlying and related theory for conformal maps and complex Brownian motion. The structure of the notes is influenced by our attempt to make the material accessible to students having a working knowledge of basic martingale theory and Itô ca...
متن کاملSchramm-Loewner evolution and Liouville quantum gravity.
We show that when two boundary arcs of a Liouville quantum gravity random surface are conformally welded to each other (in a boundary length-preserving way) the resulting interface is a random curve called the Schramm-Loewner evolution. We also develop a theory of quantum fractal measures (consistent with the Knizhnik-Polyakov-Zamolochikov relation) and analyze their evolution under conformal w...
متن کاملShortest path and Schramm-Loewner Evolution
We numerically show that the statistical properties of the shortest path on critical percolation clusters are consistent with the ones predicted for Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) curves for κ = 1.04 ± 0.02. The shortest path results from a global optimization process. To identify it, one needs to explore an entire area. Establishing a relation with SLE permits to generate curves statistically...
متن کاملScaling limits and the Schramm-Loewner evolution
These notes are from my mini-courses given at the PIMS summer school in 2010 at the University of Washington and at the Cornell probability summer school in 2011. The goal was to give an introduction to the Schramm-Loewner evolution to graduate students with background in probability. This is not intended to be a comprehensive survey of SLE. Received December 2011. This is a combination of note...
