Scaling behaviour of two-dimensional polygon models

Statistical Mechanics 2008-08-28 v2

Abstract

Exactly solvable two-dimensional polygon models, counted by perimeter and area, are described by qq-algebraic functional equations. We provide techniques to extract the scaling behaviour of these models up to arbitrary order and apply them to some examples. These are then used to analyze the unsolved model of self-avoiding polygons, where we numerically confirm predictions about its scaling function and its first two corrections to scaling.
