A generalised model for interacting self-avoiding trails on the square lattice is presented and studied using numerical transfer matrix methods. The model differentiates between on-site double visits corresponding to collisions, and…
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,…
This paper proves the formula \nu(d) =1 for d=1 and \nu(d) = max(1/4 +1/d, 1/2) for d > 1 for the root mean square displacement exponent \nu(d) of the self-avoiding walk (SAW) in Z^d, and thus, resolves some major long-standing open…
Puzzled by the indication of a new critical theory for the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model with a spatially staggered anisotropy on the square lattice as suggested in \cite{Wenzel08}, we study a similar anisotropic spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on…
We study a one-dimensional lattice random walk with an absorbing boundary at the origin and a movable partial reflector. On encountering the reflector, at site x, the walker is reflected (with probability r) to x-1 and the reflector is…
We review the existence of the infinite length self-avoiding walk in the half plane and its relationship to bridges. We prove that this probability measure is also given by the limit as $\beta \rightarrow \beta_c-$ of the probability…
In the past decade, a lot of attention has been devoted to the enumera-tion of walks with prescribed steps confined to a convex cone. In two dimensions, this means counting walks in the first quadrant of the plane (possibly after a linear…
Motivated by the diffusion-reaction kinetics on interstellar dust grains, we study a first-passage problem of mortal random walkers in a confined two-dimensional geometry. We provide an exact expression for the encounter probability of two…
We calculate the large deviation function of the end-to-end distance and the corresponding extension-versus-force relation for (isotropic) random walks, on and off-lattice, with and without persistence, and in any spatial dimension. For…
A mapping between random walk problems and resistor network problems is described and used to calculate the effective resistance between any two nodes on an infinite two-dimensional square lattice of unit resistors. The superposition…
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…
We study the Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice in the vicinity of the quantum critical point by means of a multiband formulation of the Dual Fermion approach. Beyond the strong local correlations of the dynamical mean field, critical…
We study the problem of critical adsorption of piecewise directed random walks on a boundary of fractal lattices that belong to the Sierpinski gasket family. By applying the exact real space renormalization group method, we calculate the…
Several studies have emphasized the impact of long-range Coulomb interactions in lattice fermions, yet conventional Auxiliary Field Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods face limitations due to their reliance on positive definite interaction…
We consider two dimensional random walks conditioned to stay in the positive quadrant. Assuming that the increments of the walk have finite second moments and that the drift vector is co-oriented with one of two axes, we construct positive…
The behavior of two-dimensional Ising spin glasses at the multicritical point on triangular and honeycomb lattices is investigated, with the help of finite-size scaling and conformal-invariance concepts. We use transfer-matrix methods on…
We prove some theorems about self-avoiding walks attached to an impenetrable surface (i.e. positive walks) and subject to a force. Specifically we show the force dependence of the free energy is identical when the force is applied at the…

We study diffusion-reaction processes on periodic square planar lattices and simple cubic (sc) lattices. Considered first is a single diffusing reactant undergoing an irreversible reaction upon first encounter with a stationary co-reactant…
Two closely related models of oriented self-avoiding walks (OSAWs) on a square lattice are studied. We use the pruned-enriched Rosenbluth method to determine numerically the phase diagram. Both models have three phases: a tight-spiral phase…
