We characterize the avoided crossings in a two-parameter, time-periodic system which has been the basis for a wide variety of experiments. By studying these avoided crossings in the near-integrable regime, we are able to determine scaling…
We numerically investigate the influence of self-attraction on the critical behaviour of a polymer in two dimensions, by means of an analysis of finite-size results of transfer-matrix calculations. The transfer matrix is constructed on the…
It was discovered a few years ago that many networks in the real world exhibit self-similarity. A lot of researches on the structures and processes on real and artificial fractal complex networks have been done, drawing an analogy to…
In a system of interacting thin rigid rods of equal length $2 \ell$ on a two-dimensional grid of lattice spacing $a$, we show that there are multiple phase transitions as the coupling strength $\kappa=\ell/a$ and the temperature are varied.…
The partition function of the O(n) loop model on the honeycomb lattice is mapped to that of the O(n) loop model on the 3-12 lattice. Both models share the same operator content and thus critical exponents. The critical points are related…
The extraordinary transition which occurs in the two-dimensional O(n) model for $n<1$ at sufficiently enhanced surface couplings is studied by conformal perturbation theory about infinite coupling and by finite-size scaling of the spectrum…
We investigate the transport properties of a model of an interacting electronic resonant level system. The hybridization of the localized resonant level is treated in perturbation and the contributions to all orders are computed. This…

Monte Carlo simulations, using the PERM algorithm, of interacting self-avoiding walks (ISAW) and interacting self-avoiding trails (ISAT) in five dimensions are presented which locate the collapse phase transition in those models. It is…
A number of microorganisms leave persistent trails while moving along surfaces. For single-cell organisms, the trail-mediated self-interaction will influence its dynamics. It has been discussed recently [Kranz \textit{et al.} Phys. Rev.…
We present simulations of self-avoiding random walks on 2-d lattices with the topology of an infinitely long cylinder, in the limit where the cylinder circumference L is much smaller than the Flory radius. We study in particular the…
The self-avoid random walk algorithm has been extensively used in the study of polymers. In this work we study the basic properties of the trajectories generated with this algorithm when two interactions are added to it: contact and folding…
Autonomous Vehicle decisions rely on multimodal prediction models that account for multiple route options and the inherent uncertainty in human behavior. However, models can suffer from mode collapse, where only the most likely mode is…
Prudent walks are self-avoiding walks which cannot step towards an already occupied vertex. We introduce a new model of adsorbing prudent walks on the square lattice, which start on an impenetrable surface and accrue a fugacity $a$ with…
We consider the Ising model and the directed walk on two-dimensional layered lattices and show that the two problems are inherently related: The zero-field thermodynamical properties of the Ising model are contained in the spectrum of the…
We consider a self-avoiding walk model (SAW) on the faces of the square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. This walk can traverse the same face twice, but crosses any edge at most once. The weight of a walk is a product of local weights: each square…
Using Monte Carlo simulations we have studied the transition from an "active" steady state to an absorbing "inactive" state for two versions of the branching annihilating random walks with parity conservation on a square lattice. In the…
Using extensive Monte Carlo simulations, we investigate the surface adsorption of self-avoiding trails on the triangular lattice with two- and three-body on-site monomer-monomer interactions. In the parameter space of two-body, three-body,…
Nienhuis' truncated O(n) model gives rise to a model of self-avoiding loops on the hexagonal lattice, each loop having a fugacity of n. We study such loops subjected to a particular kind of staggered field w, which for n -> infinity has the…
A self-avoiding walk with small attractive interactions is described here. The existence of the connective constant is established, and the diffusive behavior is proved using the method of the lace expansion.
