Smirnov: conformal invariance of critical triangular-lattice percolation

What changed

Proved conformally invariant critical triangular-site-percolation crossing limits and Cardy's formula.

Scientific scope

The record is Smirnov's sole-author 2001 Comptes Rendus note and associated 2001 preprint. It does not absorb Cardy's prediction, Schramm's SLE construction, later full proofs and exponents, or universality for arbitrary lattices and models.
