The polymer theta-point as a knot delocalisation transition
E. Orlandini, A. L. Stella, C. Vanderzande
We study numerically the tightness of prime flat knots in a model of self-attracting polymers with excluded volume. We find that these knots are localised in the high temperature s…
A simple model of DNA denaturation and mutually avoiding walks statistics
Marco Baiesi, Enrico Carlon, Enzo Orlandini +1
Recently Garel, Monthus and Orland (Europhys. Lett. v 55, 132 (2001)) considered a model of DNA denaturation in which excluded volume effects within each strand are neglected, whil…
Topological and geometrical entanglement in a model of circular DNA undergoing denaturation
M. Baiesi, E. Orlandini, A. L. Stella
The linking number (topological entanglement) and the writhe (geometrical entanglement) of a model of circular double stranded DNA undergoing a thermal denaturation transition are…
