CROSSOVER IN SMART KINETIC GROWTH WALKS

Abstract

By extending the study of smart kinetic growth walks on the honeycomb lattice we are able to extract a value for the crossover exponent, 0.44 ± 0.02, which is consistent with the conjectured value of 3 7 ≈ 0.428 for interacting walks at the θ-temperature. This work corroborates similar results on the oriented Manhattan lattice. © 1994.
