Partition function zeros of adsorbing Dyck paths

NR Beaton, EJ Janse van Rensburg

The zeros of the size- partition functions for a statistical mechanical model can be used to help understand the critical behaviour of the model as . Here we use wei…

Adsorbing staircase polygons subject to a force

Nicholas R. Beaton

We study several models of staircase polygons on the rotated square lattice, which interact with an impenetrable surface while also being pushed towards or pulled away f…

Polygons in restricted geometries subjected to infinite forces

Nicholas R Beaton, Jeremy W Eng, Christine E Soteros

We consider self-avoiding polygons in a restricted geometry, namely an infinite tube in . These polygons are subjected to a force , parallel to the infi…

A solvable non-directed model of polymer adsorption

Nicholas R. Beaton, Gerasim K. Iliev

Prudent walks are self-avoiding walks which cannot step towards an already occupied vertex. We introduce a new model of adsorbing prudent walks on the square lattice, which start o…

Compressed self-avoiding walks, bridges and polygons

Nicholas R. Beaton, Anthony J. Guttmann, Iwan Jensen +1

We study various self-avoiding walks (SAWs) which are constrained to lie in the upper half-plane and are subjected to a compressive force. This force is applied to the vertex or ve…

Two-dimensional self-avoiding walks and polymer adsorption: Critical fugacity estimates

Nicholas R. Beaton, Anthony J. Guttmann, Iwan Jensen

Recently Beaton, de Gier and Guttmann proved a conjecture of Batchelor and Yung that the critical fugacity of self-avoiding walks interacting with (alternate) sites on the surface…

A numerical adaptation of SAW identities from the honeycomb to other 2D lattices

Nicholas R Beaton, Anthony J Guttmann, Iwan Jensen

Recently, Duminil-Copin and Smirnov proved a long-standing conjecture by Nienhuis that the connective constant of self-avoiding walks on the honeycomb lattice is $\sqrt{2+\sqrt{2}}…

The critical fugacity for surface adsorption of self-avoiding walks on the honeycomb lattice is

Nicholas R. Beaton, Mireille Bousquet-Mélou, Jan de Gier +2

In 2010, Duminil-Copin and Smirnov proved a long-standing conjecture of Nienhuis, made in 1982, that the growth constant of self-avoiding walks on the hexagonal (a.k.a. honeycomb)…
