Interplay of structures in conformal and universal random geometry
My overall goal is to provide novel conceptual understanding of persistent challenges in mathematical physics, in light of recent discoveries of myself and others. The emphasis is especially in finding connections between different areas, making use of my expertise at their crossroads. The first two concrete aims concern statistical mechanics (SM) and mathematical formulations of (logarithmic) conformal field theory (CFT), on the one hand algebraically and on the other hand probabilistically. The last two aims focus on connections and interplay of structures arising in SM, such as Schramm-Loewner evolutions (SLE), with algebro-geometric formulations of CFT. Gaining conceptual understanding…
