Complex Spontaneous Flows and Concentration Banding in Active Polar Films
Luca Giomi, M. Cristina Marchetti, Tanniemola B. Liverpool
We study the dynamical properties of active polar liquid crystalline films. Like active nematic films, active polar films undergo a dynamical transitions to spontaneously flowing s…
Hydrodynamic and rheology of active polar filaments
Tanniemola B. Liverpool, M. Cristina Marchetti
The cytoskeleton provides eukaryotic cells with mechanical support and helps them perform their biological functions. It is a network of semiflexible polar protein filaments and ma…
Statistical mechanics of double-helical polymers
Alvise De Col, Tanniemola B. Liverpool
We introduce a simple geometric model for a double-stranded and double-helical polymer. We study the statistical mechanics of such polymers using both analytical techniques and sim…
Renormalized Field Theory of Polyelectrolyte Solutions
Michael Stapper, Tanniemola B. Liverpool
We present a field-theoretic renormalization group (RG) analysis of a dilute solution of flexible, screened polyelectrolyte chains (Debye-Hueckel chains) in a polar solvent. We per…
