Know When to Fold 'Em: Self-Assembly of Shapes by Folding in Oritatami
Erik D. Demaine, Jacob Hendricks, Meagan Olsen +5
An oritatami system (OS) is a theoretical model of self-assembly via co-transcriptional folding. It consists of a growing chain of beads which can form bonds with each other as the…

Thermodynamic Binding Networks
David Doty, Trent A. Rogers, David Soloveichik +2
Strand displacement and tile assembly systems are designed to follow prescribed kinetic rules (i.e., exhibit a specific time-evolution). However, the expected behavior in the limit…

The Simulation Powers and Limitations of Higher Temperature Hierarchical Self-Assembly Systems
Jacob Hendricks, Matthew J. Patitz, Trent A. Rogers
In this paper, we extend existing results about simulation and intrinsic universality in a model of tile-based self-assembly. Namely, we work within the 2-Handed Assembly Model (2H…
