Abstract

Self-avoiding walks on the body-centered-cubic (BCC) and face-centered-cubic (FCC) lattices are enumerated up to lengths 28 and 24, respectively, using the length-doubling method. Analysis of the enumeration results yields values for the exponents γ\gamma and ν\nu which are in agreement with, but less accurate than those obtained earlier from enumeration results on the simple cubic lattice. The non-universal growth constant and amplitudes are accurately determined, yielding for the BCC lattice μ=6.530520(20)\mu=6.530520(20), A=1.1785(40)A=1.1785(40), and D=1.0864(50)D=1.0864(50), and for the FCC lattice μ=10.037075(20)\mu=10.037075(20), A=1.1736(24)A=1.1736(24), and D=1.0460(50)D=1.0460(50).
