In geometric function theory, holomorphic functions are regarded as mappings between subsets of the complex plane and one aims at understanding the rich interplay between their geometric and analytic properties. Of interest are especially conformal maps, namely holomorphic functions that are additionally injective. Among the numerous powerful tools that were developed for this purpose is the so-called Loewner evolution. It can be seen as a dynamical process ![]() ![]() ![]() with respect to some driving function ![]() In 2000, Oded Schramm added a stochastic component to that theory by considering driving functions ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The character of ![]() ![]() With Wendelin Werner (2006) and Stanislav Smirnov (2010), two mathematicians have been awarded the Fields medal for their contributions to this fascinating field. In this lecture, which is formally a continuation of the lecture Funktionentheorie, we give an introduction to the basics of both geometric function theory and stochastic Loewner evolution. We will also provide the needed facts from probability theory and stochastic calculus. Participants are supposed to have some prior knowledge on basic measure theory and complex analysis (such as Analysis III and Funktionentheorie), but no prerequisites on probability theory are assumed. |
