Conformal change of half-plane capacity 2026-10-05
Suppose a capacity-parameterized Loewner chain lies in a domain on which is a conformal map. For its image chain set . Then the image Loewner driving function is andThe derivative is real by the Schwarz reflection principle. Cancellation of the pole in the differentiated conjugacy identity proves the squared-derivative rule.
Conformal invariance of planar Brownian motion Created 2026-09-28 Updated 2026-10-05
If is planar Brownian motion in a domain and is a nonconstant holomorphic function, then , run with the clock , is planar Brownian motion in until the relevant exit time. In particular, conformal maps transport harmonic measure between planar domains.
Conformal invariance of SLE 2026-09-28
Chordal SLE is defined on any simply connected domain with two marked boundary points by applying a conformal map from the upper half-plane. Its law is independent of the chosen map, up to a deterministic change of parameterization.
If is a conformal map, pulling back a zero-boundary Gaussian free field on gives a zero-boundary Gaussian free field on . This follows from the conformal invariance of the planar Dirichlet Green function.
Conformal inversion of a quadrant 2026-10-06
The map sends the open second quadrant inside the unit circle bijectively to the open first quadrant outside it. Radius becomes and argument becomes . Its derivative is nonzero on the source, so it is a conformal map. Rotation combined with reciprocal inversion similarly maps other quarter-disc regions.
The map is a conformal map from onto the unit disc. A principal square root first maps the slit parabolic region to a vertical strip, and a scaled tangent followed by squaring maps the strip to a slit disc. Evenness in the square-root variable gives a holomorphic extension across the removed axis, filling the target slit.
A sigma-finite measure on simple closed curves has conformal restriction if restricting to loops in a simply connected domain and then applying a conformal map agrees with first transporting the domain and restricting there. The usual nontrivial measures are finite on bounded macroscopic cutoff windows and are determined up to normalization by their pointed conformal deficits.
Dirichlet energy space 2026-10-05
For planar Gaussian free field theory, this is the completion of real test functions in the norm induced by the Dirichlet inner product, . On a general unbounded domain this convention must be distinguished from completion in the inhomogeneous norm. A conformal map identifies its energy norm with that on the unit disc by conformal invariance.
Dirichlet Poisson integral in a quadrant 2026-10-06
The conformal map sends to the complex upper half-plane. For bounded continuous boundary values on the horizontal axis and on the vertical axis with equal corner values, set for and for . The bounded harmonic function with those Dirichlet boundary conditions isEquivalently, if with , this is . The Poisson kernel is a positive approximate identity, so the prescribed edge values are attained. Boundedness is essential for uniqueness on this unbounded domain.
Harmonic quadrant solution from tangential boundary derivatives Created 2026-10-05 Updated 2026-10-07
For a harmonic function in the quadrant with boundary derivatives and , integrating the data to equal corner values and applying the Schwarz integral formula after the conformal map givesThese are tangential boundary derivatives, so uniqueness requires an additional normalization or growth restriction. A homogeneous contribution has the form with holomorphic in the complex upper half-plane and real on its boundary away from zero. For example, has zero prescribed derivatives on both edges.
Choose a conformal map from a proper simply connected domain to the unit disc and pull back the topology of the closed disc. The resulting compactification is independent of the chosen map, since disc automorphisms extend to its boundary. Its intrinsic boundary distinguishes different approaches to a slit. Every conformal map between such domains extends to their intrinsic compactifications. This boundary agrees with the prime-end description in the simply connected setting.
Koebe quarter theorem 2026-10-05
If is a univalent function on the unit disc, then . The constant is sharp, as shown by the Koebe function. This gives useful comparisons between the derivative of a conformal map, its conformal radius, and its distance to the domain boundary.
