Scaling limits of random planar maps
Abstract:
Planar maps are graphs embedded in the sphere such that no two edges cross, where we view two planar maps as equivalent if we can get one from the other via a continuous deformation of the sphere. In this talk we will present scaling limit results (i.e., convergence results) for random planar maps and we will focus in particular on a notion of convergence known as convergence under conformal embedding.
