The aim of the present paper is to construct and describe a natural measure on the set of self-avoiding loops in the plane and on any Riemann surface. By a self-avoiding loop on a surface S, we mean a continuous injective map from the unit circle into S modulo monotone reparametrizations (i.e. we look only at the trace of the loop and forget about its parametrization). We will construct a measure that possess some strong conformai invariance properties, and we shall see that this measure is the only one with these properties. Let us first describe this strong conformai invariance property, phrased in terms of a measure on the set of self-avoiding loops in the plane: We say that such a measure fi satisfies conformai restriction if for any two conformally equivalent domains D and Df (i.e. such that there exists a conformai map from D onto D') in the plane, the image of the measure fi restricted to the set of loops that stay in D, via any conformai map $ from D onto D', is exactly the measure ?x restricted to the set of loops that stay in D'. Note that this condition implies in particular that the measure fi is translation invariant, scale-invariant (and therefore that it has infinite total mass provided that fi t? 0), and that if fi satisfies conformai restriction, then so does cfi for any positive constant c. We are going to say that a measure on the set of self-avoiding loops is non-trivial if for some 0 < S < A < oo, the mass of the set of loops of diameter at least S and that stay in some disc of radius A is neither 0 nor infinite. We shall prove the following result:
