Scaling limits for the peeling process on random maps
  We study the scaling limit of the volume and perimeter of the discovered regions in the Markovian explorations known as peeling processes for infinite random planar maps such as the uniform infinite planar triangulation (UIPT) or quadrangulation (UIPQ). In particular, our results apply to the metric exploration or peeling by layers algorithm, where the discovered regions are (almost) completed balls, or hulls, centered at the root vertex. The scaling limits of the perimeter and volume of hulls can be expressed in terms of the hull process of the Brownian plane studied in our previous work. Other applications include the metric exploration of the dual graph of our infinite random lattices, and first-passage percolation with exponential edge weights on the dual graph, also known as the Eden model or uniform peeling.
