DESCRIPTION:Co-authors: Greg Lawler (Math. Department of Chicago Universit
 y)\, Oded Schramm (Microsoft Research)\, Wendelin Werner (Math. Department
  of ETH) \n\nWhen people tried to understand two-dimensional statistical p
 hysics models\, it is realized that any conformally invariant process sati
 sfying a certain restriction property has corssing or intersection exponen
 ts. Conformal field theory has been extremely successful in predicting the
  exact values of critical exponents describing the bahvoir of two-dimensio
 nal systems from statistical physics. The main goal of this talk is to rev
 iew the restriction property and related critical exponents. First\, we wi
 ll introduce Brownian intersection exponents. Second\, we discuss Conforma
 l Restriction---the chordal case and the radial case. Third\, we explain t
 he idea of the proofs. Finally\, we give some relation between conformal r
 estriction sets and intersection exponents. \n
