Boundary and bulk scaling-limit conjecture for the lambda-self-avoiding walk

Let DCD\subset\mathbb C be bounded and let z,wDz,w\in\overline D be distinct marked points, with the boundary regularity and lattice conventions required to define the corresponding measures νn\nu_n. For every c1{\bf c}\leq1, let β\beta be lattice dependent and let b,b~b,\tilde b be lattice-independent scaling exponents. Define

bζ={b,if ζ is a boundary point,b~,if ζ is an interior point.b_\zeta=\begin{cases}b,&\text{if }\zeta\text{ is a boundary point},\tilde b,&\text{if }\zeta\text{ is an interior point}. \end{cases}

Boundary and bulk lambda-self-avoiding-walk scaling conjecture. The partition function and rescaled measures satisfy

Znn(bz+bw)ΨD(z,w),n,Z_n\sim n^{-(b_z+b_w)}\Psi_D^*(z,w),\qquad n\to\infty, νD(z,w)=limnnbz+bwνn,\nu_D(z,w)=\lim_{n\to\infty}n^{b_z+b_w}\nu_n,

and

fνD(z,w)=f(z)bzf(w)bwνf(D)(f(z),f(w)).f\circ\nu_D(z,w)=|f'(z)|^{b_z}|f'(w)|^{b_w}\nu_{f(D)}(f(z),f(w)).

This is the rough boundary extension of the bulk conjecture; the paper points to a more precise formulation accounting for lattice issues and does not prove it.
