One of the most striking achievements is the proof of the Cardy-Smirnov formula. This theorem, together with the introduction of Schramm-Loewner Evolution and techniques developed over the years in percolation, allow precise descriptions of the critical and near-critical regimes of the model. This survey aims to describe the different steps leading to the proof that the infinite-cluster density $\\theta(p)$ for site percolation on the triangular lattice behaves like $(p-p_c)^{5/36+o(1)}$ as $p\\searrow p_c=1/2$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2013-06-07T08:55:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "schramm-loewner evolution", "planar percolation", "triangular lattice behaves", "important progress", "precise descriptions" ], "tags": [ "lecture notes" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1107.0158B" } } }
