This Gibbs probability measure provides a simple model for a homopolymer with an attractive potential at the origin. In a previous paper(Cranston and Molchanov, 2007), we showed that for dimensions d≥3 there is a phase transition in the behavior of these paths from the diffusive behavior for β below a critical parameter to the positive recurrent behavior for β above this critical value. The critical value was determined by means of the spectral properties of the operator ? + βδ0, where ? is the discrete Laplacian on Zd. This corresponds to a transition from a diffusive or stretched-out phase to a globular phase for the polymer. In this paper we give a description of the polymer at the critical value where the phase transition takes place. The behavior at the critical parameter is dimension-dependent.展开更多
