Random Walks with Long-Range Self-Repulsion on Proper Time

Abstract

We introduce a model of self-repelling random walks where the short-range interaction between two elements of the chain decreases as a power of the difference in proper time. Analytic results on the exponent are obtained. They are in good agreement with Monte Carlo simulations in two dimensions. A numerical study of the scaling functions and of the efficiency of the algorithm is also presented.
