Crosslinked polymer chains with excluded volume: A new class of branched polymers?
In this note microgels with and without excluded volume interactions are considered. Based on earlier exact computations on Gaussian mircogels, which are formed by self-crosslinking (with $M$ crosslinks) of polymer chains with chain length $N$ Flory type
