Abstract

We study three-dimensional self-avoiding walks in presence of a one-dimensional excluded region. We show the appearance of a universal sub-leading exponent which is independent of the particular shape and symmetries of the excluded region. A classical argument provides the estimate: Δ= 2 ν- 1 ≈ 0.175(1). The numerical simulation gives Δ= 0.18(2).
