The Loewner local growth property gives a continuous Loewner driving function, and we normalize $U_0=0$. Mapping out an initial hull transforms the future driver to $U_{t+s}-U_t$. The Conformal Markov property of SLE therefore gives stationary increments and independent increments.

Consequently $U$ is a continuous Lévy process. In the Lévy–Khintchine formula, continuity excludes its jump measure, so its only possible components are a deterministic linear drift and Brownian motion:Conformal invariance under dilations gives $U_{r^{2}t}/r\stackrel{d}{=}{U}_t$. Comparing the expectations of these Gaussian random variables yields $\mu rt=\mu t$ for every $r>0$, hence $\mu =0$. The Brownian term already has the required law by Brownian scaling. Therefore the characterization of the SLE driving function isThe case $\kappa =0$ is the constant zero driver. No reflection-symmetry assumption is needed to remove the drift; scaling suffices.
