Abstract: In this note phase transition issues are addressed for random polymers on $$\mathbb {Z}^2$$ with long-range self-repulsive interactions. It is shown that, in the absence of drift and with power law interactions, the polymer exhibits transition from diffusive to a ballistic behavior. When non-null drifts are added and positive translation invariant interactions are considered, the polymer presents a ballistic behavior. Our results complement some previous studies on the matter and we also derive a Central Limit Theorem for the model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
