In this paper, we present a new approach to the Kratky-Porod Model (KP) of semiflexible polymers. Our solution to the model is based on the definition of a generating function which we use to study the statistical mechanics of semiflexible…
The quantum mechanical time-evolution is studied for a particle under the influence of an explicitly time-dependent rotating potential. We discuss the existence of the propagator and we show that in the limit of rapid rotation it converges…
