Lattice Tadpoles

S G Whittington

We prove several rigorous results about the asymptotic behaviour of the numbers of tadpoles (or lassos) embedded in a lattice, including cases where the head is subject to a constr…

Exponential growth rate of lattice comb polymers

EJ Janse van Rensburg, SG Whittington

We investigate a lattice model of comb polymers and derive bounds on the exponential growth rate of the number of embeddings of the comb. A comb is composed of a backbone that is a…

Self-avoiding walks and polygons confined to a square

S G Whittington

We prove several rigorous results about the asymptotic behaviour of the numbers of polygons and self-avoiding walks confined to a square on the square lattice. Specifically we prov…

Adsorbed self-avoiding walks pulled at an interior vertex

C J Bradly, EJ Janse van Rensburg, A L Owczarek +1

We consider self-avoiding walks terminally attached to a surface at which they can adsorb. A force is applied, normal to the surface, to desorb the walk and we investigate how the…

Self-avoiding walks subject to a force

EJ Janse van Rensburg, SG Whittington

We prove some theorems about self-avoiding walks attached to an impenetrable surface (i.e. positive walks) and subject to a force. Specifically we show the force dependence of the…

Pulling adsorbed self-avoiding walks from a surface

Anthony J. Guttmann, Iwan Jensen, Stu G. Whittington

We consider a self-avoiding walk model of polymer adsorption where the adsorbed polymer can be desorbed by the application of a force, concentrating on the case of the square latti…
