Let $c_n = c_n(d)$ denote the number of self-avoiding walks of length $n$ starting at the origin in the Euclidean nearest-neighbour lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$. Let $\mu = \lim_n c_n^{1/n}$ denote the connective constant of $\mathbb{Z}^d$. In…
We have analysed the recently extended series for the number of self-avoiding walks (SAWs) $C_L(1)$ that cross an $L \times L$ square between diagonally opposed corners. The number of such walks is known to grow as $\lambda_S^{L^2}.$ We…

Oriented self-avoiding walks (OSAWs) on a square lattice are studied, with binding energies between steps that are oriented parallel across a face of the lattice. By means of exact enumeration and Monte Carlo simulation, we reconstruct the…
We consider the model of self-avoiding walks on the $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice interacting with a $d^*$-dimensional defect, where $1\leq d^*<d$. Such an interaction can be attractive or repulsive, and is controlled by a Boltzmann…

Models of random walks are considered in which walkers are born at one location and die at all other locations with uniform death rate. Steady-state distributions of random walkers exhibit dimensionally dependent critical behavior as a…
