Conformal Invariance of the FK-Ising Model on Lorentz-Maximal S-Embeddings

Abstract

We show on non-flat but critical s-embeddings the celebrated convergence of the interface curves of the critical FK Ising model to an

curve, using discrete complex analytic techniques first used in arXiv:0708.0039, arXiv:1312.0533 and subsequently extended to more lattice settings including isoradial graphs arXiv:0910.2045, circle packings arXiv:1712.08736, and flat s-embeddings arXiv:2006.14559. In our setting, the s-embedding approximates a maximal surface in the Minkowski space

, an `exact' criticality condition identified in arXiv:2006.14559, which is stronger than the percolation-theoretic `near-critical' setup studied in, e.g., arXiv:2309.08470. The proof relies on a careful discretisation of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the s-embedding, which is crucial in identifying the limit of the martingale observable.
