What is Conformational Entropy of Compact Polymers about?

Exact results for the scaling properties of compact polymers on the square lattice are obtained from an effective field theory. The entropic exponent \gamma=117/112 is calculated, and a line of fixed points associated with interacting chains is identified; along this line \gamma varies continuously. Theoretical results are checked against detailed numerical transfer matrix calculations, which also yield a precise estimate for the connective constant \kappa=1.47280(1).
