A directed polymer in a random environment is a model which describes a polymer (that is to say a long chain of molecules) as a random walk path which interacts with a random environment. Here, one considers (and defines) a polymer model with boundaries which are assigned distinct weight distributions, and one derives upper and lower bounds for the model with boundary. One gives detailed results for the fluctuations of a path in the model with boundaries for a polymer with fixed endpoint but without boundaries and for a polymer with free endpoint.
