Abstract: Abstract Self-avoiding walks, lattice trees and lattice animals, and percolation are among the simplest models exhibiting the general features of critical phenomena. A basic problem is to prove the existence of critical exponents governing their behavior near the critical point. This problem gains importance from interrelations between these models and models ferromagnetism such as the Ising model, and from their role in the theory of polymer molecules.
