We analyze the statistics of loops formation in f-branched star polymers in an environment with structural defects, correlated at large distances r according to a power law ∼r−a⁠. Applying the direct polymer renormalization approach, we found the values of the set of universal exponents, governing the scaling of probabilities of various types of loops in macromolecules.
