Boundary Effects in Chiral Polymer Hexatics
Randall D. Kamien, Alex J. Levine
Boundary effects in liquid-crystalline phases can be large due to long-ranged orientational correlations. We show that the chiral hexatic phase can be locked into an apparent three…

Polymer Shape Anisotropy and the Depletion Interaction
Mario Triantafillou, Randall D. Kamien
We calculate the second and third virial coefficients of the effective sphere-sphere interaction due to polymer depletion. By utilizing the anisotropy of a typical polymer conforma…

Anomalous Elasticity of Polymer Cholesterics
Randall D. Kamien, John Toner
We show that polymer cholesterics have much longer pitches than comparable short molecule cholesterics, due to their anomalous elasticity. The pitch of a chiral mixture with co…
