Abstract
The scaling properties of self-avoiding polymerized membranes are stud
ied using renormalization group methods. The scaling exponent v is cal
culated for the first time at 2-loop order. II is found to agree with
the Gaussian variational estimate for large space dimension d and to b
e close to the Flory estimate for d = 3.
