Abstract
The prediction of conformal invariance for the statistics of self-avoiding random walks restricted to both semi-infinite and wedge-shaped geometries are tested by extrapolating exact enumerations. Close agreement is found, both for the angular distribution of the end-to-end vector, and for the dependence of the critical exponent gamma 2 on the opening angle of the wedge.Keywords
