Copolymeric stars adsorbed at a surface and subject to a force: a self-avoiding walk model
EJ Janse van Rensburg, SG Whittington
We consider a model of star copolymers, based on self-avoiding walks, where the arms of the star can be chemically distinct. The copolymeric star is attached to an impenetrable sur…
Knot probabilities in equilateral random polygons
A. Xiong, A. J. Taylor, M. R. Dennis +1
We consider the probability of knotting in equilateral random polygons in Euclidean 3-dimensional space, which model, for instance, random polymers. Results from an extensive Monte…
Interplay between writhe and knotting for swollen and compact polymers
Marco Baiesi, Enzo Orlandini, Stuart G. Whittington
The role of the topology and its relation with the geometry of biopolymers under different physical conditions is a nontrivial and interesting problem. Aiming at understanding this…
A directed walk model of a long chain polymer in a slit with attractive walls
R Brak, A L Owczarek, A Rechnitzer +1
We present the exact solutions of various directed walk models of polymers confined to a slit and interacting with the walls of the slit via an attractive potential. We consider th…
