Abstract:

The paper is devoted to the multiple chordal Loewner differential equation with different driving functions on two time intervals. We obtain exact implicit or explicit solutions to the Loewner equations with piecewise constant driving functions and with combined constant and square root driving functions. In both cases, there is an analytical and geometrical description of generated traces. Earlier, Kager, Nienhuis and Kadanoff integrated the chordal Loewner differential equation either with a constant driving function or with a square root driving function. In the first case, the equation generates a rectilinear slit in the upper half-plane which is orthogonal to the real axis $\mathbb R$. In the second case, a rectilinear slit forms an angle to $\mathbb R$. In our paper, the multiple chordal Loewner differential equation generates more complicated hulls consisting of three rectilinear and curvilinear fragments which can be either intersecting or disjoint. Analytical results of the paper are accompanied by geometrical illustrations.
