Two-dimensional polymer networks at a mixed boundary: Surface and wedge exponents


Abstract in English

We provide general formulae for the configurational exponents of an arbitrary polymer network connected to the surface of an arbitrary wedge of the two-dimensional plane, where the surface is allowed to assume a general mixture of boundary conditions on either side of the wedge. We report on a comprehensive study of a linear chain by exact enumeration, with various attachments of the walks ends to the surface, in wedges of angles $pi/2$ and $pi$, with general mixed boundary conditions.
