Checking for optimal solutions in some -complete problems
Henri Orland, Michel Bauer
For some weighted -complete problems, checking whether a proposed solution is optimal is a non-trivial task. Such is the case for the celebrated traveling salesman problem, or…
Generalized Poland-Scheraga model for supercoiled DNA
Thomas Garel, Henri Orland, Edouard Yeramian
The Poland-Scheraga (PS) model for the helix-coil transition of DNA considers the statistical mechanics of the thermally induced binding of two complementary strands of DNA. In thi…
Prediction of RNA pseudoknots by Monte Carlo simulations
G. Vernizzi, H. Orland, A. Zee
In this paper we consider the problem of RNA folding with pseudoknots. We use a graphical representation in which the secondary structures are described by planar diagrams. Pseudok…
Generalized Poland-Scheraga model for DNA hybridization
Thomas Garel, Henri Orland
The Poland-Scheraga (PS) model for the helix-coil transition of DNA considers the statistical mechanics of the binding (or hybridization) of two complementary strands of DNA of equ…
Field Theory of Polymers: Escaping the Sign Problem
Glenn H. Fredrickson, Henri Orland
We examine statistical field theories of polymeric fluids in view of performing numerical simulations. The partition function of these systems can be expressed as a functional inte…
On the role of mismatches in DNA denaturation
T. Garel, H. Orland
In the framework of the Poland Scheraga model of DNA denaturation, we derive a recursion relation for the partition function of double stranded DNA, allowing for mismatches between…
