Abstract
The behaviour of a polymer dissolved in a poor solvent is studied using the self-interacting self-avoiding walk model. The properties of short polymers are generated by exact enumeration methods and the results extrapolated to large systems. Evidence supporting the existence of a phase transition is obtained. The exponents governing the length dependence of the partition function and moments of the distribution functions appear to be temperature dependent.
