SPOCK*: A simple program for simulating knotted and concatenated polymer rings off-lattice

Franco Ferrari, Marcin R. Piątek

The purpose of this work is to present SPOCK*, a Monte Carlo code specifically written to investigate the thermodynamic and mechanical properties of polymers in the presence of top…

On the thermal properties of knotted block copolymer rings

Neda Abbasi Taklimi, Franco Ferrari, Marcin R. Piątek +1

We investigate the thermal and structural properties of knotted diblock copolymer rings using a coarse-grained lattice model in an implicit solvent. The system is studied by means…

Single [2]catenanes in solution forming -plats: a combined field theoretical and numerical approach

Franco Ferrari, Marcin R. Piątek

The statistical mechanics of [2]catenanes in a solution with constrained number of maxima and minima along a special direction (the height) is discussed. The interest in this syste…

A contact map method to capture the features of knot conformations

Neda Abbasi Taklimi, Franco Ferrari, Marcin Radosław Piątek +1

Inspired by recent advances in the chromosome capture techniques, a method is proposed to study the structural organization of systems of polymers rings with topological constraint…

On the thermal properties of knotted block copolymer rings

Neda Abbasi Taklimi, Franco Ferrari, Marcin Radosław Piątek +1

The thermal properties of coarse grained knotted polymers containing two kinds of monomers and fluctuating in a solution are investigated on a simple cubic lattice using th…

On a path integral representation of the Nekrasov instanton partition function and its Nekrasov--Shatashvili limit

Franco Ferrari, Marcin Piątek

In this work we study the Nekrasov--Shatashvili limit of the Nekrasov instanton partition function of Yang--Mills field theories with supersymmetry and gauge group SU(…
