 Domain Markov property of a chordal Loewner chain

Conditionally on the entire past up to $t$, the future domains mapped and centered by $g_t-U_t$ have the original chain law and are independent of that past. For Schramm–Loewner evolution this follows from independent stationary Brownian motion increments and the composition rule for chordal Loewner driving functions. The Strong Markov property gives the version at almost surely finite stopping times.
