Multifractal Scaling in Hi-C Maps
Seong-Gyu Yang, Lucas Hedström, Jan Smrek +1
The three-dimensional organization of the genome exhibits rich, scale-dependent structure, as revealed by both chromosome contact maps (e.g., Hi-C maps) and chromatin density measu…

Actively induced supercoiling can slow down plasmid solutions by trapping the threading entanglements
Roman StaÅo, Renáta Rusková, DuÅ¡an RaÄko +1
Harnessing the topology of ring polymers as a design motif in functional nanomaterials is becoming a promising direction in the field of soft matter. For example, the ring topology…

Entropic tug of war: Topological constraints spontaneously rectify the dynamics of a polymer with heterogeneous fluctuations
Adam H. T. P. Höfler, Iurii Chubak, Christos N. Likos +1
Polymers with active segments constitute prospective future materials and are used as a model for some biological systems such as chromatin. The directions of the active forces are…
