Self Avoiding Walks in Four Dimensions: Logarithmic Corrections
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present simulation results for long (N ≤ 4000) self-avoiding walks in four dimensions. We find definite indications of logarithmic corrections, but the data are poorly described by the asymptotically leading terms. Detailed comparisons are presented with renormalization group flow equations derived in direct renormalization and with results of a field theoretic calculation.

On anisotropic spiral self-avoiding walks
We report on a Monte Carlo study of so-called two-choice-spiral self-avoiding walks on the square lattice. These have the property that their geometric size (such as is measured by the radius of gyration) scales anisotropically, with exponent values that seem to defy rational fraction conjectures. This polymer model was previously understood to be in a universality class different to ordinary s...
متن کاملHigh - precision determination of the criticalexponent for self - avoiding
We compute the exponent for self-avoiding walks in three dimensions. We get = 1:1575 0:0006 in agreement with renormalization-group predictions. Earlier Monte Carlo and exact-enumeration determinations are now seen to be biased by corrections to scaling.
متن کاملScaling of self-avoiding walks in high dimensions
We examine self-avoiding walks in dimensions 4 to 8 using high-precision Monte Carlo simulations up to length N = 16 384, providing the first such results in dimensions d > 4 on which we concentrate our analysis. We analyse the scaling behaviour of the partition function and the statistics of nearest-neighbour contacts, as well as the average geometric size of the walks, and compare our results...
متن کاملCritical correlation functions for the 4-dimensional weakly self-avoiding walk and n-component |φ| model
We extend and apply a rigorous renormalisation group method to study critical correlation functions, on the 4-dimensional lattice Z4, for the weakly coupled n-component |φ|4 spin model for all n ≥ 1, and for the continuous-time weakly self-avoiding walk. For the |φ|4 model, we prove that the critical two-point function has |x|−2 (Gaussian) decay asymptotically, for n ≥ 1. We also determine the ...
متن کاملA note on the corrections-to-scaling for the number of nearest neighbour contacts in self-avoiding walks
Recently, an exhaustive study has been made of the corrections-to-scaling for the number of, and various size measures (eg. radius of gyration) of, self-avoiding walks on the various two-dimensional lattices. This study gave compelling evidence that the first non-analytic correction-to-scaling has exponent Δ1 = 3/2. However, there also exist predictions in the literature for the corrections-to-...
