abstract

Lawler, Schramm and Werner showed that the scaling limit of the loop-erased random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ is $\mathrm{SLE}_2$. We consider scaling limits of the loop-erasure of random walks on other planar graphs (graphs embedded into $\mathbb{C}$ so that edges do not cross one another). We show that if the scaling limit of the random walk is planar Brownian motion, then the scaling limit of its loop-erasure is $\mathrm{SLE}_2$. Our main contribution is showing that for such graphs, the discrete Poisson kernel can be approximated by the continuous one. One example is the infinite component of super-critical percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^2$. Berger and Biskup showed that the scaling limit of the random walk on this graph is planar Brownian motion. Our results imply that the scaling limit of the loop-erased random walk on the super-critical percolation cluster is $\mathrm{SLE}_2$.

  1. Random walk reflected off of infinity, with applications to uniform spanning forests and supercritical Liouville quantum gravity

    math.PR 2025-06 conditional novelty 9.0 of 10

    A random walk that reflects off the boundary at infinity yields new algorithmic constructions of the free uniform spanning forest and a conjectural embedding framework for supercritical Liouville quantum gravity.
