Conformal symmetries in the extremal process of two-dimensional discrete Gaussian free field (Q1986571): Difference between revisions

There is an important relationship between the Discrete Gaussian Free Field and the Continuum Gaussian Free Field by which the later is limit of the former for extremal values in a proper subset of \(\mathbb{Z}^2\) that approximate a continuum domain \(D \in \mathbb{C}\). In this paper, the dependence of the limit statistics on \(D\) is investigated. In particular, the representation of the conformal symmetries of the Continuum Gaussian Free Field in the limit laws for extremal values of the Discrete Gaussian Free Field is found. In previous works, the authors found that the process of extreme local maxima on the lattice version of the unit square tend in the limit of locality to a Poisson point process and solved the problem of extremal points which are not local maxima. In the present article, the authors generalize this result to a class of bounded open sets in \(\mathbb{C}\) which are not squares and find the correspondence between the \(Z\)-measures. The laws of the \(Z\)-measures are characterized by the same properties as the ``white-noise'' critical Liouville Quantum Gravity in the bounded open and the Gibbs-Markov property is established. Also, it is shown that the random measures of the bounded sets are related to each other as a consequence of the conformal transformations of these sets. The control of the law of scaled position and center value of large absolute maxima is obtained.
