For chordal SLE with parameter , the Loewner trace starts at zero and is parametrized by half-plane capacity . Let be the unbounded component of , and let be its filled compact H-hull. When the trace is not simple, the hull includes the regions it disconnects from infinity. The associated mapping-out functions of compact H-hulls have expansionand satisfy the Chordal Loewner equationwhere is standard real Brownian motion. The equation is solved until is swallowed by the hull. The Loewner transform records the real boundary point at which the mapped hull grows; its relation to the trace isEquivalently the tip maps to in the appropriate boundary prime-end sense. Thus the flow encodes the surviving domains, the transform drives that flow, and the trace generates its hulls. For , the driver is identically zero, with the branch asymptotic to , and .
