We have developed an improved algorithm that allows us to enumerate the number of site animals on the square lattice up to size 46. We also calculate the number of lattice trees up to size 44 and the radius of gyration of both lattice…
We use the finite lattice method to calculate the radius of gyration, the first and second area-weighted moments of self-avoiding polygons on the square lattice. The series have been calculated for polygons up to perimeter 82. Analysis of…
We present an implementation of Redelemeier's algorithm for the enumeration of lattice animals in high dimensional lattices. The implementation is lean and fast enough to allow us to extend the existing tables of animal counts, perimeter…
We perform numerical simulations of the lattice-animal problem at the upper critical dimension d=8 on hypercubic lattices in order to investigate logarithmic corrections to scaling there. Our stochastic sampling method is based on the…
We have developed a parallel algorithm that allows us to enumerate the number of self-avoiding polygons on the square lattice to perimeter length 110. We have also extended the series for the first 10 area-weighted moments and the radius of…
We study the statistics of column-convex lattice animals generated by the stacking of squares on a staircase with step height p. We calculate the number of animals with area k living on l stairs. The total number of animals with area k is…
We describe Maple packages for the automatic generation of generating functions(and series expansions) for counting lattice animals(fixed polyominoes), in the two-dimensional hexagonal lattice, of bounded but arbitrary width. Our Maple…
We study the statistics of column-convex lattice animals resulting from the stacking of squares on a single or double staircase. We obtain exact expressions for the number of animals with a given length and area, their mean length and their…
We use the finite lattice method to count the number of punctured staircase and self-avoiding polygons with up to three holes on the square lattice. New or radically extended series have been derived for both the perimeter and area…
In this paper, we consider various classes of polyiamonds that are animals residing on the triangular lattice. By careful analyses through certain layer-by-layer decompositions and cell pruning/growing arguments, we derive explicit forms…
We consider minimal-perimeter lattice animals, providing a set of conditions which are sufficient for a lattice to have the property that inflating all minimal-perimeter animals of a certain size yields (without repetitions) all…
We have calculated long series expansions for self-avoiding walks and polygons on the honeycomb lattice, including series for metric properties such as mean-squared radius of gyration as well as series for moments of the area-distribution…
We use new algorithms, based on the finite lattice method of series expansion, to extend the enumeration of self-avoiding walks and polygons on the triangular lattice to length 40 and 60, respectively. For self-avoiding walks to length 40…
The scaling behaviour of randomly branched polymers in a good solvent is studied in two to nine dimensions, using as microscopic models lattice animals and lattice trees on simple hypercubic lattices. As a stochastic sampling method we use…
We provide combinatorial arguments based on a two-dimensional extension of a locally-free semigroup allowing us to compute the growth rate, $\Lambda$, of the partition function $Z_N=N^{\theta}\Lambda^N$ of the $N$-particle directed animals…
We introduce a method for translating any upper bound on the percolation threshold of a lattice $G$ into a lower bound on the exponential growth rate $a(G)$ of lattice animals and vice-versa. We exploit this in both directions. We improve…
A spread-out lattice animal is a finite connected set of edges in $\{ \{x,y\} \subset \mathbb{Z}^d:0<||x-y||\le L \}$. A lattice tree is a lattice animal with no loops.The best estimate on the critical point $p_c$ so far was achieved by…
We study the area distribution of closed walks of length $n$, beginning and ending at the origin. The concept of area of a walk in the square lattice is generalized and the usefulness of the new concept is demonstrated through a simple…
We prove that the growth constants for nearest-neighbour lattice trees and lattice (bond) animals on the integer lattice Zd are asymptotic to 2de as the dimension goes to infinity, and that their critical one-point functions converge to e.…
We examine the percolation model in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ by an approach involving lattice animals, in which their relevant characteristic is surface-area-to-volume ratio. Two critical exponents are introduced. The first is related to the growth…
