Brownian non-Gaussian diffusion of self-avoiding walks
Boris Marcone, Sankaran Nampoothiri, Enzo Orlandini +2
Three-dimensional Monte Carlo simulations provide a striking confirmation to a recent theoretical prediction: the Brownian non-Gaussian diffusion of critical self-avoiding walks. A…
Topological disentanglement of linear polymers under tension
Michele Caraglio, Boris Marcone, Fulvio Baldovin +2
We develop a theoretical description of the topological disentanglement occurring when torus knots reach the ends of a semi-flexible polymer under tension. These include decays int…
Knot localization in adsorbing polymer rings
B. Marcone, E. Orlandini, A. L. Stella
We study by Monte Carlo simulations a model of knotted polymer ring adsorbing onto an impenetrable, attractive wall. The polymer is described by a self-avoiding polygon (SAP) on th…
On the size of knots in ring polymers
B. Marcone, E. Orlandini, A. L. Stella +1
We give two different, statistically consistent definitions of the length l of a prime knot tied into a polymer ring. In the good solvent regime the polymer is modelled by a self a…
What is the length of a knot in a polymer?
B. Marcone, E. Orlandini, A. L. Stella +1
We give statistical definitions of the length, l, of a loose prime knot tied into a long, fluctuating ring macromolecule. Monte Carlo results for the equilibrium, good solvent regi…
