Hamiltonian walks on Sierpinski and n-simplex fractals

Statistical Mechanics 2009-11-10 v3

Abstract

We study Hamiltonian walks (HWs) on Sierpinski and nn--simplex fractals. Via numerical analysis of exact recursion relations for the number of HWs we calculate the connectivity constant ω\omega and find the asymptotic behaviour of the number of HWs. Depending on whether or not the polymer collapse transition is possible on a studied lattice, different scaling relations for the number of HWs are obtained. These relations are in general different from the well-known form characteristic of homogeneous lattices which has thus far been assumed to hold for fractal lattices too.
