Winding angle distribution for planar random walk, polymer ring entangled with an obstacle, and all that: Spitzer-Edwards-Prager-Frisch model revisited

Using a general Green function formulation, we re-derive, both (i) Spitzer and his followers results for the winding angle distribution of the planar Brownian motion, and (ii) Edwards-Prager-Frisch results on the statistical mechanics of a ring polymer entangled with a straight bar. In the statistic...
