Exact curvilinear diffusion coefficients in the repton model
Arnaud Buhot
The Rubinstein-Duke or repton model is one of the simplest lattice model of reptation for the diffusion of a polymer in a gel or a melt. Recently, a slightly modified model with ha…

The Effects of Stacking on the Configurations and Elasticity of Single Stranded Nucleic Acids
A. Buhot, A. Halperin
Stacking interactions in single stranded nucleic acids give rise to configurations of an annealed rod-coil multiblock copolymer. Theoretical analysis identifies the resulting signa…

Sensitivity, Specificity and the Hybridization Isotherms of DNA Chips
A. Halperin, A. Buhot, E. B. Zhulina
Competitve hybridization, at the surface and in the bulk, lowers the sensitivity of DNA chips. Competitive surface hybridization occurs when different targets can hybridize with th…
