Some resources
There is no general rule on what is included here. Ones that I have actually used and can recommend are bolded.
Blogs
inordinatum - Physics and Mathematics of Disordered Systems
Percolation
Tassion - ETH Zürich Percolation Theory Autumn 2020
Duminil-Copin - Introduction to Bernoulli percolation
Note that there is another version on his IHES website, which is not the most recent version. In particular, Exercise 17 is incorrect in the 2018 version.
Ariel Yadin - an introduction to percolation
Brownian geometry
Grégory Miermont - Random Planar Maps
Best enjoyed with his Saint-Flour lecture notes
Some timestamps:

Converse of CVS bijection - BDG bijection
Upper bound for metrics in the quadragulation

Section 1.5 is an interesting read.

Video lectures in Chinese
Schramm-Loewner Evolutions
Mads Bonde Raad’s Master’s Thesis
Kemppainen - Schramm–Loewner Evolution
For a very quick introduction to SLE. There are some gaps in the text but filling them in is a good exercise, or one can use AI. I have not been able to locate the Appendix.
Berestycki & Norris - Schramm-Loewner Evolution
Note there there is an older version on Norris’s website (scroll to bottom) with example sheets.
Lawler - The Laplacian-b random walk and the Schramm-Loewner evolution
Interesting paper, also remarked on by Miller and Sheffield in Quantum Loewner evolutions. Another related paper is I knew I should have taken that left turn at Albuquerque by Kozma and Yadin.
Continuum GFF, LQG - 2D Random Geometry
Sheffield - 18.177 Gauge theory and random surfaces: Fall, 2017
Probability and Group Theory
Anna Erschler - Poisson-Furstenberg boundaries, large-scale geometry and growth of groups
Tal Cohen & Tsachik Gelander - An Invitation to Analytic Group Theory
Lyons & Peres - Probability on Trees and Networks
Absolutely magnificent.
Uncategorised
I find that the Chicago REU papers are sometimes very nice to read.
ICMS - Sandpiles and Tropical Geometry
Williams - Probability with Martingales
My favourite introductory probability book. Every time I pick it up I regret not doing so more often.
Summer research opportunities
Summer trainee at Aalto Department of Mathematics and Systems Analysis
They also have the AScI International Summer Research Programme but this one doesn’t have projects in maths.
I love nepotism.
