Thermal denaturation of fluctuating finite DNA chains: the role of bending rigidity in bubble nucleation
John Palmeri, Manoel Manghi, Nicolas Destainville
Statistical DNA models available in the literature are often effective models where the base-pair state only (unbroken or broken) is considered. Because of a decrease by a factor o…

Thermal Denaturation of Fluctuating DNA Driven by Bending Entropy
J. Palmeri, M. Manghi, N. Destainville
A statistical model of homopolymer DNA, coupling internal base pair states (unbroken or broken) and external thermal chain fluctuations, is exactly solved using transfer kernel tec…

Validity of the scaling functional approach for polymer interfaces as a variational theory
Manoel Manghi, Miguel Aubouy
We discuss the soundness of the scaling functional (SF) approach proposed by Aubouy Guiselin and Raphael (Macromolecules 29, 7261 (1996)) to describe polymeric interfaces. In parti…
