The unfolding of a polymer below the $\theta$ point when pulled by an external force is studied both in d=2 on the lattice and in $d=3$ off lattice. A ground state analysis of finite length chains shows that the globule unfolds via multiple…
Using exact computations we study the classical hard-core monomer-dimer models on m x n plane lattice strips with free boundaries. For an arbitrary number v of monomers (or vacancies), we found a logarithmic correction term in the…
We explore the critical behaviour of two and three dimensional lattice models of polymers in dilute solution where the monomers carry a magnetic moment which interacts ferromagnetically with near-neighbour monomers. Specifically, the model…

Wigner crystals are extremely fragile, which is shown to result from very strong geometric frustration germane to long-range Coulomb interactions. Physically, this is manifested by a very small characteristic energy scale for shear density…
We consider the Larkin model of a directed polymer with Gaussian-distributed random forces, with the addition of a resetting process whereby the transverse position of the end-point of the polymer is reset to zero with constant rate $r$. We…
Periodic boundary conditions are not always used in the study of disordered systems, but it can be advantageous to apply them to mimick thermodynamically large systems. In this case, polarization and its cumulants can not be obtained…
Disorder-free localization is a paradigm of strong ergodicity breaking that has been shown to occur in global quenches of lattice gauge theories when the system is initialized in a superposition over an extensive number of gauge sectors.…
