This monograph is dedicated to a generalization of the Löwner equation in its stochastic form known as SLE and to its coupling with the Gaussian free field, ultimately aiming at the construction of a boundary conformal field theory with one free scalar bosonic field. This study is presented in line with a systematic, and hopefully concise, presentation and generalization of known elements of the theory of Löwner evolution. We also study the relation to singular representations of the Virasoro algebra and methods of numerical simulation. The main results are in the proof of the basic properties of the generalized SLE and general necessary and sufficient conditions for the coupling. We also introduce a machinery that possesses to consider all Löwner equations and known types of the coupling as different manifestations of the same thing.
