Conformation of single-stranded RNA in a virus capsid: implications of dimensional reduction
Rouzbeh Ghafouri, Joseph Rudnick, Robijn Bruinsma
The statistical mechanics of a treelike polymer in a confining volume is relevant to the packaging of the genome in RNA viruses. Making use of the mapping of the grand partition fu…

The confinement free energies of non-ideal branched polymers and ideal unbranched polymers are the same
Rouzbeh Ghafouri, Joseph Rudnick, Robijn Bruinsma
We use the method of dimensional reduction to show that a branching polymer with excluded volume interaction confined between two flat plates has, in the thermodynamic limit, a con…
