SLE and Random Maps

Probability

Speaker: Steffen Rohde, University of Washington
Location: 1147 MSB
Start time: Wed, Apr 11 2012, 4:10PM

In the first part of my talk, I will review a selection of highlights around the Schramm-Loewner Evolution SLE. In the second part, I will discuss connections to other (random) objects of current interest (circle homeomorphisms, trees, and planar maps), as well as speculation about the conformal geometry of the "Brownian map".
