Area distribution and scaling function for punctured polygons

, , and . Abstract Book of the XXIII IUPAP International Conference on Statistical Physics, Genova, Italy, (9-13 July 2007)

Abstract

Punctured polygons are polygons with internal holes which are also polygons. The external and internal polygons are mutually as well as self-avoiding. We report on recent progress in understanding their asymptotic behaviour. This includes predictions for scaling functions of punctured self-avoiding polygons in the perimeter and area ensemble. Our predictions are obtained by a combination of a rigorous analysis of area moments and a numerical analysis of series data obtained from exact enumeration.
