The present paper is concerned with properties of multiple Schramm--Loewner evolutions (SLEs) labelled by a parameter $κ\in (0,8]$. Specifically, we consider the solution of the multiple Loewner equation driven by a time change of Dyson's Brownian motions in the non-colliding regime. Although it is often considered that several properties of the solution can be studied by means of commutation relations of SLEs and the absolute continuity, this method is available only in the case that the curves generated by commuting SLEs are separated. Beyond this restriction, it is not even obvious that the solution of the multiple Loewner equation generates multiple curves. To overcome this difficulty, we employ the coupling of Gaussian free fields and multiple SLEs. Consequently, we prove the longstanding conjecture that the solution indeed generates multiple continuous curves. Furthermore, these multiple curves are (i) simple disjoint curves when $κ\in (0,4]$, (ii) intersecting curves when $κ\in (4,8)$, and (iii) space-filling curves when $κ=8$.
We prove an equality-in-law relating the maximum of GUE Dyson's Brownian motion and the non-colliding systems with a wall. This generalizes the well known relation between the maximum of a Brownian motion and a reflected Brownian motion.
In this article, we study multiple $SLE_κ$, for $κ\in(0,4]$, driven by Dyson Brownian motion. This model was introduced in the unit disk by Cardy in connection with the Calogero-Sutherland model. We prove the Carathéodory convergence of perturbed Loewner chains under different initial conditions and under different diffusivity $κ\in (0,4]$ for the case of $N=2$ driving forces. Our proofs use the analysis of Bessel processes and estimates on Loewner differential equation with multiple driving forces. In the last section, we estimate the Hausdorff distance of the hulls under perturbations of the…
We introduce a semi-implicit Euler-Maruyama approximation which preservers the non-colliding property for some class of non-colliding particle systems such as Dyson Brownian motions, Dyson-Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes and Brownian particles systems with nearest neighbour repulsion, and study its rates of convergence in both $L^p$-norm and path-wise sense.
Bessel process is defined as the radial part of the Brownian motion (BM) in the $D$-dimensional space, and is considered as a one-parameter family of one-dimensional diffusion processes indexed by $D$, BES$^{(D)}$. It is well-known that $D_{\rm c}=2$ is the critical dimension. Bessel flow is a notion such that we regard BES$^{(D)}$ with a fixed $D$ as a one-parameter family of initial value. There is another critical dimension $\bar{D}_{\rm c}=3/2$ and, in the intermediate values of $D$, $\bar{D}_{\rm c} < D < D_{\rm c}$, behavior of Bessel flow is highly nontrivial. The dimension D=3 is speci…
In the paper [7] we studied the temporally inhomogeneous system of non-colliding Brownian motions and proved that multi-time correlation functions are generally given by the quaternion determinants in the sense of Dyson and Mehta. In this report we give another proof of the equivalent statement using Fredholm determinant and Fredholm pfaffian, and claim that the present system is a typical example of pfaffian processes.
A family of reflected Brownian motions is used to construct Dyson's process of non-colliding Brownian motions. A number of explicit formulae are given, including one for the distribution of a family of coalescing Brownian motions.
In this paper, we use Malliavin calculus to show the existence and continuity of density functions of $d$-dimensional non-colliding particle systems such as hyperbolic particle systems and Dyson Brownian motion with smooth drift. For this purpose, we apply results proved by Florit and Nualart (1995) and Naganuma (2013) on locally non-degenerate Wiener functionals.
We consider families of non-colliding random walks above a hard wall, which are subject to a self-potential of tilted area type. We view such ensembles as effective models for the level lines of a class of $2+1$-dimensional discrete-height random surfaces in statistical mechanics. We prove that, under rather general assumptions on the step distribution and on the self-potential, such walks converge, under appropriate rescaling, to non-intersecting Ferrari--Spohn diffusions associated with limiting Sturm--Liouville operators. In particular, the limiting invariant measures are given by the squar…
We provide an order of convergence for a version of the Carathéodory convergence for the multiple SLE model with a Dyson Brownian motion driver towards its hydrodynamic limit, for $β=1$ and $β=2$. The result is obtained by combining techniques from the field of Schramm-Loewner Evolutions with modern techniques from random matrices. Our approach shows how one can apply modern tools used in the proof of universality in random matrix theory, in the field of Schramm-Loewner Evolutions.
A quantum surface (QS) is an equivalence class of pairs $(D,H)$ of simply connected domains $D\subsetneq\mathbb{C}$ and random distributions $H$ on $D$ induced by the conformal equivalence for random metric spaces. This distribution-valued random field is extended to a QS with $N+1$ marked boundary points (MBPs) with $N\in\mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}$. We propose the conformal welding problem for it in the case of $N\in\mathbb{Z}_{\ge 1}$. If $N=1$, it is reduced to the problem introduced by Sheffield, who solved it by coupling the QS with the Schramm--Loewner evolution (SLE). When $N \ge 3$, there natu…
Miller and Sheffield introduced the notion of an imaginary surface as an equivalence class of pairs of simply connected proper subdomains of $\mathbb{C}$ and Gaussian free fields (GFFs) on them under the conformal equivalence. They considered the situation in which the conformal maps are given by a chordal Schramm--Loewner evolution (SLE). In the present paper, we construct GFF-valued processes on $\mathbb{H}$ (the upper half-plane) and $\mathbb{O}$ (the first orthant of $\mathbb{C}$) by coupling a GFF with a multiple SLE evolving in time on each domain. We prove that a GFF on $\mathbb{H}$ and…
We pursue applications for symplectic Plancherel growth based on a repulsion phenomenon arising in its diffusion limit and on intermediate representation theory underlying its correlation structure. Under diffusive scaling, the dynamics converge to interlaced reflecting Brownian motions with a wall that achieve Dyson non-colliding dynamics. We exhibit non-degeneracy of constraint in this coupled system by deriving a path property that quantifies repulsion between particles coinciding in the limit. We then identify consistent series of Plancherel measures for $Sp(\infty)$ that reflect the odd s…
Recently del Monaco and Schleißinger addressed an interesting problem whether one can take the limit of multiple Schramm--Loewner evolution (SLE) as the number of slits $N$ goes to infinity. When the $N$ slits grow from points on the real line ${\mathbb{R}}$ in a simultaneous way and go to infinity within the upper half plane ${\mathbb{H}}$, an ordinary differential equation describing time evolution of the conformal map $g_t(z)$ was derived in the $N \to \infty$ limit, which is coupled with a complex Burgers equation in the inviscid limit. It is well known that the complex Burgers equation go…
In the series of lectures, we will discuss probability laws of random points, curves, and surfaces. Starting from a brief review of the notion of martingales, one-dimensional Brownian motion (BM), and the $D$-dimensional Bessel processes, BES$_{D}$, $D \geq 1$, first we study Dyson's Brownian motion model with parameter $β>0$, DYS$_β$, which is regarded as multivariate extensions of BES$_D$ with the relation $β=D-1$. Next, using the reproducing kernels of Hilbert function spaces, the Gaussian analytic functions (GAFs) are defined on a unit disk and an annulus. As zeros of the GAFs, determinant…
We construct the conditional version of $k$ independent and identically distributed random walks on $\R$ given that they stay in strict order at all times. This is a generalisation of so-called non-colliding or non-intersecting random walks, the discrete variant of Dyson's Brownian motions, which have been considered yet only for nearest-neighbor walks on the lattice. Our only assumptions are moment conditions on the steps and the validity of the local central limit theorem. The conditional process is constructed as a Doob $h$-transform with some positive regular function $V$ that is strongly …
Let $n$ particles move in standard Brownian motion in one dimension, with the process terminating if two particles collide. This is a specific case of Brownian motion constrained to stay inside a Weyl chamber; the Weyl group for this chamber is $A_{n-1}$, the symmetric group. For any starting positions, we compute a determinant formula for the density function for the particles to be at specified positions at time $t$ without having collided by time $t$. We show that the probability that there will be no collision up to time $t$ is asymptotic to a constant multiple of $t^{-n(n-1)/4}$ as $t$ go…
