The Loewner Equation for Multiple Hulls

Abstract

Kager, Nienhuis, and Kadanoff conjectured that the hull generated from the Loewner equation driven by two constant functions with constant weights could be generated by a single rapidly and randomly oscillating function. We prove their conjecture and generalize to multiple continuous driving functions. In the process, we generalize to multiple hulls a result of Roth and Schleissinger that says multiple slits can be generated by constant weight functions. The proof gives a simulation method for hulls generated by the multiple Loewner equation.
