Chain stiffness bridges conventional polymer and bio-molecular phases}
Tatjana Skrbic, Jayanth R. Banavar, Achille Giacometti
Chain molecules play important roles in industry and in living cells. Our focus here is on distinct ways of modeling the stiffness inherent in a chain molecule. We consider three t…
Local symmetry determines the phases of linear chains: a simple model for the self-assembly of peptide
Tatjana Skrbic, Trinh X. Hoang, Amos Maritan +2
We discuss the relation between the emergence of new phases with broken symmetry within the framework of simple models of biopolymers. We start with a classic model for a chain mol…
True scale-free networks hidden by finite size effects
Matteo Serafino, Giulio Cimini, Amos Maritan +4
We analyze about two hundred naturally occurring networks with distinct dynamical origins to formally test whether the commonly assumed hypothesis of an underlying scale-free struc…
