SLE and Rough Paths Theory

In this talk, I am going to report on some on-going research at the interface between Rough Paths Theory and Schramm-Loewner evolutions (SLE). In this project, we try to adapt techniques from Rough Differential Equations to the study of the Loewner Differential Equation. The main ideas concern the restart of the backward Loewner differential equation from the singularity in the upper half plane. I am going to describe some general tools that we developed in the last months that lead to a better understanding of the dynamics in the closed upper half plane under the backward Loewner flow.
