Abstract: The Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE_kappa) is a candidate for the scaling limit of random curves arising in two-dimensional critical phenomena. When kappa < 8, an instance of SLE_kappa is a random planar curve with almost sure Hausdorff dimension d = 1 + kappa/8 < 2. This curve is conventionally parametrized by its half plane capacity, rather than by any measure of its d-dimensional volume. For kappa < 8, we use a Doob-Meyer decomposition to construct the unique (under mild assumptions) Markovian parametrization of SLE_kappa that transforms like a d-dimensional volume measure under conformal maps. We prove that this parametrization is non-trivial (i.e., the curve is not entirely traversed in zero time) for kappa < 4(7 - sqrt{33}) = 5.021 ....
