This volume sharpens our picture of the applications of conformal invariance, introducing non-local observables such as loops and interfaces before explaining how they arise in specific physical contexts. It then shows how to use conformal invariance to determine their properties.   Moving on to cover key conceptual developments in conformal invariance, the book devotes much of its space to stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE), detailing SLE?s conceptual foundations as well as extensive numerical tests. The chapters then elucidate SLE?s use in geometric phase transitions such as percolation or polymer systems, paying particular attention to surface effects. As clear and accessible as it is authoritative, this publication is as suitable for non-specialist readers and graduate students alike. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Physics,$x0075-8450 ;$v853 606 $aPhysics 606 $aStatistical physics 606 $aDynamical systems 606 $aMathematical physics 606 $aMathematical Methods in Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013 606 $aComplex Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33000 606 $aMathematical Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M35000 606 $aStatistical Physics and Dynamical Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19090 615 0$aPhysics. 615 0$aStatistical physics. 615 0$aDynamical systems. 615 0$aMathematical physics. 615 14$aMathematical Methods in Physics. 615 24$aComplex Systems. 615 24$aMathematical Physics. 615 24$aStatistical Physics and Dynamical Systems. 676 $a530.14/3 702 $aHenkel$b Malte$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKarevski$b Dragi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910133752403321 996 $aConformal Invariance: an Introduction to Loops, Interfaces and Stochastic Loewner Evolution$92519140 997 $aUNINA
