Title: | Vesicles, the tricritical-0-state Potts-model, and the collapse of branched polymers | Authors: | VANDERZANDE, Carlo | Issue Date: | 1993 | Publisher: | AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC | Source: | PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS, 70(23). p. 3595-3598 | Abstract: | We relate a cycle model for the collapse of branched polymers without holes (in d = 2) to the problem of self-avoiding rings with an area fugacity, studied in the context of vesicles. This relation together with arguments which show that the collapse transition of branched polymers (with holes) is described by the tricritical-zero-state Potts model allows a determination of all critical exponents at this collapse point; nu = 1/2, phi = 2/3, tau = 2, in agreement with numerical results. We also comment on the universality of this result. | Notes: | VANDERZANDE, C, LIMBURGS UNIV CENTRUM,DEPT WISKUNDE NAT INFORMAT,B-3590 DIEPENBEEK,BELGIUM. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/3777 | ISI #: | A1993LE94200019 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
