In this paper we further describe the features of the topological space $K(R)$ obtained from the loop nerve of $R$, for $R=(S,T)$ a bi-secondary structure. We will first identify certain distinct combinatorial structures in the arc diagram…

The leaves of angiosperms contain highly complex venation networks consisting of recursively nested, hierarchically organized loops. We describe a new phenotypic trait of reticulate vascular networks based on the topology of the nested…

Existing state-of-the-art methods that take a single RNA sequence and predict the corresponding RNA secondary-structure are thermodynamic methods. These predict the most stable RNA structure, but do not consider the process of structure…
