Abstract
We analyze the effect of disorder on the statistics of a ring macromolecule by a computer simulation. We show how the statistics of the ring change from obeying self-avoiding to lattice animal statistics. We find a scaling relationship to characterize this crossover behavior. We further show how this problem maps onto a related study on two-dimensional vesicles with a pressure difference.
