Entropic droplets and activated events near the glass transition of a random heteropolymer
Shoji Takada, Peter G. Wolynes
The barriers between metastable states near the glass transition of a random heteropolymer are studied using replicas by describing inhomogeneous states. The instanton solution for…

Statics, metastable states and barriers in protein folding: A replica variational approach
Shoji Takada, Peter G. Wolynes
Protein folding is analyzed using a replica variational formalism to investigate some free energy landscape characteristics relevant for dynamics. A random contact interaction mode…

An Elementary Mode Coupling Theory of Random Heteropolymer Dynamics
Shoji Takada, John J. Portman, Peter G. Wolynes
The Langevin dynamics of a random heteropolymer and its dynamic glass transition are studied using elementary mode coupling theory. Contrary to recent reports using a similar frame…
