Distribution of the cotangent of the SLE tip argument

From papers

Let κ<8\kappa<8, and consider the backward SLEκSLE_{\kappa} flow and its SLEκSLE_{\kappa} trace. At any fixed deterministic time t>0t>0, let the tip of the trace be viewed through the cotangent of its argument, and write xx for this real-valued random variable. The cotangent-tip distribution conjecture. The law of xx has density

μ(dx)=Cdx(1+x2)4/κ,\mu(dx)=\frac{C\,dx}{(1+x^2)^{4/\kappa}},

where CC is a normalizing constant. The paper proves the same closed-form stationary distribution along a suitable sequence of random times, but identifying it with the distribution at every fixed deterministic time remains conjectural.
