Self-avoiding Walks and Polymer Adsorption
Self-avoiding walks on a d-dimensional hypercubic lattice are used to model a polymer interacting with a surface. One can choose to weight the walk by the number of vertices or the number of edges on the surface and define the free energy of the polymer using equilibrium statistical mechanics. We loo...
