Abstract
We show that correlation functions for branched polymers correspond to thos e for phi (3) theory with a single mass insertion, not those for the phi (3 ) theory themselves, as has been widely believed. In particular, the two-po int function behaves as 1/p(4), not as 1/p(2). This behavior is consistent with the fact that the Hausdorff dimension of a branched polymer is four.
