We find the generating function of self-avoiding walks and trails on a semi-regular lattice called the $3.12^2$ lattice in terms of the generating functions of simple graphs, such as self-avoiding walks, polygons and tadpole graphs on the…
The collapse transition of an isolated polymer has been modelled by many different approaches, including lattice models based on self-avoiding walks and self-avoiding trails. In two dimensions, previous simulations of kinetic growth trails,…
We have studied a model of self-attracting walk proposed by Sapozhnikov using Monte Carlo method. The mean square displacement $ < R^2(t) > \sim t^{2\nu}$ and the mean number of visited sites $ < S(t) > \sim t^{k}$ are calculated for one-,…
Kinetically grown self-avoiding walks on various types of generalized random networks have been studied. Networks with short- and long-tailed degree distributions $P(k)$ were considered ($k$, degree or connectivity), including scale-free…
We study terminally attached self-avoiding walks and bridges on the simple cubic lattice, both by series analysis and Monte Carlo methods. We provide strong numerical evidence supporting a scaling relation between self-avoiding walks,…
We prove several rigorous results about the asymptotic behaviour of the numbers of polygons and self-avoiding walks confined to a square on the square lattice. Specifically we prove that the dominant asymptotic behaviour of polygons…
We have extended the enumeration of self-avoiding walks on the Manhattan lattice from 28 to 53 steps and for self-avoiding polygons from 48 to 84 steps. Analysis of this data suggests that the walk generating function exponent gamma =…
Motivated by recent claims of a proof that the length scale exponent for the end-to-end distance scaling of self-avoiding walks is precisely $7/12=0.5833...$, we present results of large-scale simulations of self-avoiding walks and…
We study the winding angles of random and self-avoiding walks on square and cubic lattices with number of steps $N$ ranging up to $10^7$. We show that the mean square winding angle $\langle\theta^2\rangle$ of random walks converges to the…
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…
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…
We study the correction-to-scaling exponents for the two-dimensional self-avoiding walk, using a combination of series-extrapolation and Monte Carlo methods. We enumerate all self-avoiding walks up to 59 steps on the square lattice, and up…
We study a restricted class of self-avoiding walks (SAW) which start at the origin (0, 0), end at $(L, L)$, and are entirely contained in the square $[0, L] \times [0, L]$ on the square lattice ${\mathbb Z}^2$. The number of distinct walks…
We demonstrate that the recently proposed Interacting Growth Walk (cond-mat/0108097) does not have the contact-scaling behaviour of Self-Avoiding Walk (M. Baiesi, E. Orlandini and A. L. Stella, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 070602 (2001)) at finite…
We study self-avoiding walks on the four-dimensional hypercubic lattice via Monte Carlo simulations of walks with up to one billion steps. We study the expected logarithmic corrections to scaling, and find convincing evidence in support the…
We reduce the problem of counting self-avoiding walks in the square lattice to a problem of counting the number of integral points in multidimensional domains. We obtain an asymptotic estimate of the number of self-avoiding walks of length…
We have studied self-avoiding walks contained within an $L \times L$ square whose end-points can lie anywhere within, or on, the boundaries of the square. We prove that such walks behave, asymptotically, as walks crossing a square (WCAS),…
The growth constant for two-dimensional self-avoiding walks on the honeycomb lattice was conjectured by Nienhuis in 1982, and since that time the corresponding results for the square and triangular lattices have been sought. For the square…
The decay of directional correlations in self-avoiding random walks on the square lattice is investigated. Analysis of exact enumerations and Monte Carlo data suggest that the correlation between the directions of the first step and the…
Kinetically-grown self-avoiding walks have been studied on Watts-Strogatz small-world networks, rewired from a two-dimensional square lattice. The maximum length L of this kind of walks is limited in regular lattices by an attrition effect,…
