Abstract: The determination of the Hausdorff dimension of the scaling limit of loop-erased random walk is closely related to the study of the one-point function of loop-erased random walk, i.e., the probability a loop-erased random walk passes through a given vertex. Recent work in the theoretical physics literature has investigated the Hausdorff dimension of loop-erased random walk in three dimensions by applying field theory techniques to study spin systems that heuristically encode the one-point function of loop-erased random walk. Inspired by this, we introduce two different spin systems whose correlation functions can be rigorously shown to encode the one-point function of loop-erased random walk.
