Stanislav Smirnov
In 1992 British physicist John Cardy postulated a formula for the final value of the critical probability. In 2001 Smirnov showed that percolation in the scaling limit for a two-dimensional triangular lattice was conformally invariant—that is, was not changed if the lattice was stretched or squeezed. This result proved…
