An asymptotic result for Brownian polymers

We consider a model of the shape of a growing polymer introduced by Durrett and Rogers (Probab. Theory Related Fields 92 (1992) 337–349). We prove their conjecture about the asymptotic behavior of the underlying continuous process $X_t$ (corresponding to the location of the end of the polymer at time $t$) for a particular type of repelling interaction function without compact support.
