Scientific paper

In this research announcement, we show that SLE curves can in fact be viewed as boundaries of certain simple Poissonian percolation clusters: Recall that the Brownian loop-soup (introduced in the paper arxiv:math.PR/0304419 with Greg Lawler) with intensity c defines a Poissonian collection of (simple if one focuses only on the outer boundary) loops in a domain. This random family of (possibly intersecting) loops is conformally invariant (and there are almost surely infinitely many small loops in any sample). We show that there exists a critical value a in (0,1] such that if one colors all the interiors of the loops, the obtained clusters are bounded when ca, one single cluster fills the domain. We prove that for small c, the outer boundaries of the clusters are SLE-type curves where $\kappa \le 4$ and $c$ related by the usual relation $c=(3\kappa-8)(6-\kappa)/2\kappa$ (i.e. c corresponds to the central charge of the model). Conjecturally, the critical value a is equal to one and corresponds to SLE4 loops, so that this should give for any c in (0,1] a construction of a natural countable family of random disjoint SLE$_\kappa$ loops (i.e. $\kappa$ should span $(8/3,4]$), that behaves ``nicely'' under perturbation of the domain. A precise relation between chordal SLE and the loop-soup goes as follows: Consider the sample of a certain restriction measure (i.e. a certain union of Brownian excursions) in a domain, attach to it all the above-described clusters that it intersects. The outer boundary of the obtained set is exactly an SLE$_\kappa$, if the restriction measure exponent is equal to the highest-weight of the corresponding representation with central charge c.
