The O(n) loop model on the 3-12 lattice

Abstract

The partition function of the O(n) loop model on the honeycomb lattice is mapped to that of the O(n) loop model on the 3-12 lattice. Both models share the same operator content and thus critical exponents. The critical points are related via a simple transformation of variables. When n=0 this gives the recently found exact value $\mu = 1.711 041...$ for the connective constant of self-avoiding walks on the 3-12 lattice. The exact critical points are recovered for the Ising model on the 3-12 lattice and the dual asanoha lattice at n=1.
