DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/BPS/37/">A n
 on-technical introduction to the Liouville quantum gravity metric</a>\nby 
 Riddhipratim Basu (ICTS\,  Bengaluru) as part of Bangalore Probability Sem
 inar\n\n\nAbstract\nInformally speaking\, the Liouville quantum gravity (L
 QG) metric is a random Riemannian metric on the complex plane given by the
  metric tensor $\\exp(2\\xi h) (dx^2+dy^2)$ where \\xi is a parameter and 
 h is an appropriate version of the Gaussian free field on $\\mathbb{C}$. I
 n this talk\, we shall recall basic definitions and review some of the rec
 ent developments on the construction of this metric and understanding of i
 ts basic properties. I shall ignore most technical aspects and focus on ge
 ometric results that are particularly interesting from a first passage per
 colation perspective.\n
