We prove that this model exhibits the same universal FSS behaviour previously conjectured for the self-avoiding walk and Ising model on finite boxes in high-dimensional lattices. Our results show that the mean walk length of the random walk model controls the scaling behaviour of the corresponding Green's function. We numerically demonstrate the universality of our rigorous findings by extensive Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising model and self-avoiding walk on five-dimensional hypercubic lattices with free and periodic boundaries.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-09-03T09:22:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "high dimensions", "finite-size scaling", "ising model", "random walk model controls", "random-length random walk model" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
