LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Using a finite size scaling form for reunion probability, we show numerically the existence of a binding - unbinding transition for directed polymers with random interaction. The cases studied are (A1) two chains in 1 + 1 dimensions, (A2) two chains in 2 + 1 dimensions and (B) three chains in 1 + 1 dimensions. A similar finite size scaling form for fluctuation establishes a disorder-induced transition with identical exponents for cases A2 and B. The length scale exponents in all the three cases are in agreement with previous exact renormalization-group results.
