We investigate the statistical properties of a randomly branched 3–functional $N$–link polymer chain without excluded volume, whose one point is fixed at the distance $d$ from the impenetrable surface in a 3–dimensional space. Exactly solving the Dyson-type equation for the partition function $Z(N,d)=N^{-\\theta} e^{\\gamma N}$ in 3D, we find the \’surface\’ critical exponent $\\theta={5/2}$, as well as the density profiles of 3–functional units and of dead ends. Our approach enables to compute also the pairwise correlation function of a randomly branched polymer in a 3D semi-space.
