Self-avoiding walks with a curvature-dependent energy are studied with renormalization group methods on some fractal lattices.

Abstract
Self-avoiding walks with a curvature-dependent energy are studied with renormalization group methods on some fractal lattices. Fixed points corresponding to universal and non-universal behaviours are generally present. However initial conditions of the renormalization group recursions can prevent non-universality. When universality holds the persistence length is found to diverge much faster than in the periodic lattice as the curvature energy increases.File in questo prodotto:
