We describe a new algebraic technique for enumerating self-avoiding walks on the rectangular lattice. The computational complexity of enumerating walks of $N$ steps is of order $3^{N/4}$ times a polynomial in $N$, and so the approach is…

Counting the number of N-step self-avoiding walks (SAWs) on a lattice is one of the most difficult problems of enumerative combinatorics. Once we give up calculating the exact number of them, however, we have a chance to apply powerful…
