Stretching of a polymer below the Theta point
D. Marenduzzo, A. Maritan, A. Rosa +1
The unfolding of a polymer below the point when pulled by an external force is studied both in d=2 on the lattice and in off lattice. A ground state analysis of finite le…

Geometry of compact tubes and protein structures
J. R. Banavar, A. Flammini, D. Marenduzzo +2
Proteins form a very important class of polymers. In spite of major advances in the understanding of polymer science, the protein problem has remained largely unsolved. Here, we sh…

Force-induced unfolding of a homopolymer on fractal lattice: exact results vs. mean field predictions
D. Marenduzzo, A. Maritan, F. Seno
We study the force-induced unfolding of a homopolymer on the three dimensional Sierpinski gasket. The polymer is subject to a contact energy between nearest neighbour sites not con…
