Strong path convergence from Loewner driving function convergence
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: We show that, under mild assumptions on the limiting curve, a sequence of simple chordal planar curves converges uniformly whenever certain Loewner driving functions converge. We extend this result to random curves. The random version applies in particular to random lattice paths that have chordal as a scaling limit, with (nonspace-filling). Existing convergence proofs often begin by showing that the Loewner driving functions of these paths (viewed from ) converge to Brownian motion. Unfortunately, this is not sufficient, and additional arguments are required to complete the proofs. We show that driving function convergence is sufficient if it can be established for both parametrization directions and a generic observation point.
The Loewner differential equation, provided by Loewner in 1923, relates a planar self-avoiding curve to a real-valued continuous function (the ``Loewner driving function) via conformal mappings. The authors introduce ``uniform convergence as a short-hand for ``convergence in law with respect to the uniform metric, when speaking of random curves. The goal of the present article is to provide a more general criterion for deducing uniform convergence, which is less dependent on specific features of the model at hand.
