A growing hull is parameterized by half-plane capacity when . The factor two makes its Chordal Loewner equation take the conventional form .
Loewner chain 2026-09-24
A chordal Loewner chain is an increasing family of compact H-hulls, usually parameterized by half-plane capacity, whose mapping-out functions evolve according to the Chordal Loewner equation.

The parameterization in part (c) gives the exact self-similarityfor every . The Loewner local growth property supplies a continuous Loewner driving function . Under this scaling of the hulls, the deterministic scaling rule for the Chordal Loewner equation givesTaking and shows thatfor the real constant .

Put and defineThen . Differentiating with the Chordal Loewner equation givesUniqueness for this ordinary differential equation shows that . At ,which is the endpoint identity for the Reverse Loewner flow.
For , the pathwise identity is generally false. The left side is built from the reversed final driver segment , whereas the right side is built from the initial segment . By time reversal and symmetry of Brownian motion they have the same probability distribution, but they are not equal for the given Brownian path.
