A planar self-avoiding polygon (SAP) is a loop with no self-intersection. In this paper we present conjectures for the scaling limit of the uniform measures on these objects. The conjectures are based on recent results on the stochastic Loewner evolution and non-disconnecting Brownian motions. New heuristic derivations are given for the critical exponents for SAWs and SAPs.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2002-04-26T15:47:15.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K35", "82B41" ], "keywords": [ "planar self-avoiding walk", "scaling limit", "nearest neighbor random walk path", "stochastic loewner evolution", "heuristic derivations" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 610524, "adsabs": "2002math......4277L" } } }
