Abstract

Monte Carlo techniques are used to study the conformational properties of self-avoiding walks on the four-dimensional cubic lattice. Both the mean-square end-to-end distance and radius of gyration are found to diverge as N(lnN)q, where N is the number of steps in the walk. The results suggest a value q0.31, whereas the renormalization-group prediction is q=0.375; this small discrepancy is attributable to slowly decaying correction terms.
