Polyelectrolyte chains in poor solvent. A variational description of necklace formation
Gabriele Migliorini, Vakhtang Rostiashvili, Namkyung Lee +1
We study the properties of polyelectrolyte chains under different solvent conditions, using a variational technique. The free energy and the conformational properties of a polyelec…
Self- generated disorder and structural glass formation in homopolymer globules
V. G. Rostiashvili, G. Migliorini, T. A. Vilgis
We have investigated the interrelation between the spin glasses and the structural glasses. Spin glasses in this case are random magnets without reflection symmetry (e.g. - spi…
Weak violation of universality for Polyelectrolyte Chains: Variational Theory and Simulations
G. Migliorini, V. G. Rostiashvili, T. A. Vilgis
A variational approach is considered to calculate the free energy and the conformational properties of a polyelectrolyte chain in dimensions. We consider in detail the case of…
