Kenyon–Okounkov Gaussian Free Field conjecture for lozenge tilings
Kenyon–Okounkov Gaussian Free Field conjecture for lozenge tilings
Fix an arbitrary tilable polygonal domain on the triangular grid. Let be the random height function of a uniformly random lozenge tiling of the dilated domain ; if is not simply connected, fix the heights of its holes deterministically. Let be the liquid region, let be its complex slope, and let the Gaussian Free Field there be the centered Gaussian generalized field with covariance given by the Dirichlet Green function for the induced complex structure. Kenyon–Okounkov's lozenge-tiling conjecture. The random field
converges as in to the Gaussian Free Field with respect to the complex slope and with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The source notes that this has been established for several multiply? No: the cited established examples are simply connected, so the arbitrary-domain assertion, including nonsimply connected domains, remains open.
