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…

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…

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…

We study high order random walks in high dimensional expanders; namely, in complexes which are local spectral expanders. Recent works have studied the spectrum of high order walks and deduced fast mixing. However, the spectral gap of high…

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…

In this paper we present a new and flexible method to show that, in one dimension, various self-repellent random walks converge to self-repellent Brownian motion in the limit of weak interaction after appropriate space-time scaling. Our…

Counting the number of N-step self-avoiding walks (SAWs) on a lattice is one of the most difficult problems of enumerative combinatorics. Once we give up calculating the exact number of them, however, we have a chance to apply powerful…

We study the high-dimensional uniform prudent self-avoiding walk, which assigns equal probability to all nearest-neighbor self-avoiding paths of a fixed length that respect the prudent condition, namely, the path cannot take any step in the…

We consider loop-erased random walk (LERW) running between two boundary points of a square grid approximation of a planar simply connected domain. The LERW Green's function is the probability that the LERW passes through a given edge in the…

We study the asymptotic shape of self-avoiding random walks (SAW) on the backbone of the incipient percolation cluster in d-dimensional lattices analytically. It is generally accepted that the configurational averaged probability…

Despite its elementary definition, the self-avoiding walk (SAW) poses notoriously hard enumerative problems: exact connective constants are known for only a handful of infinite graphs, notably the honeycomb lattice \cite{ds}. We establish a…

Exactly solvable models of planar polygons, weighted by perimeter and area, have deepened our understanding of the critical behaviour of polygon models in recent years. Based on these results, we derive a conjecture for the exact form of…

Weakly self-avoiding walk (WSAW) is a model of simple random walk paths that penalizes self-intersections. On $\mathbb{Z}$, Greven and den Hollander proved in 1993 that the discrete-time weakly self-avoiding walk has an asymptotically…

The scaling limit of planar loop-erased random walks is described by a stochastic Loewner evolution with parameter kappa=2. In this note SLE(2) in the upper half-plane H minus a simply-connected compact subset K of H is studied. As a main…

For d at least two and integer n, let c_n = c_n(d) denote the number of length n self-avoiding walks beginning at the origin in the integer lattice Z^d, and, for even n, let p_n = p_n(d) denote the number of length n self-avoiding polygons…
