I will discuss some questions and results on random labelings of graphs conditioned on having a small number of peaks (local maxima). The main open question is to determine the distance between two peaks on a large discrete torus, assuming that the random labeling is conditioned on having exactly two peaks.

Among Greg's many important contributions to the Schramm-Loewner evolution, he and his co-authors have in recent years been largely responsible for the construction and analysis of the natural time parameterization. The term ``natural'' refers to the parameterization favored by probabilists in the …
I will present a few self-interacting random-walk-type models that somehow sit in between internal diffusion-limited aggregation and reinforced walks, associated to a strategy for proving a shape theorem for once-reinforced RW; and I will show some results in that direction.

In this talk, I will start by discussing one of Greg's many influential papers: "One-arm exponent for critical 2D percolation" by Lawler, Schramm and Werner. I will then focus on the particular case of the backbone exponent with some new insights on th…

After implementing a version of radial conformal field theory in the OPE family of statistical fields generated by background charge modification of the Gaussian free field, I present an analytical and probabilistic proof of a well-known statement in physics th…

Inspired by the geometric understanding of the SLE trace, there has been interest in studying how the deterministic Loewner equation encodes geometric properties of 2-dim sets into the 1-dim data of the driving function. Working in this vein, we …
