Particle systems admit a variety of tensor product structures (TPSs) depending on the complete system of commuting observables chosen for the analysis. Different notions of entanglement are associated with these different TPSs. Global…

Following the Flory ideality hypothesis intrachain and interchain excluded volume interactions are supposed to compensate each other in dense polymer systems. Multi-chain effects should thus be neglected and polymer conformations may be…

In this paper, we construct an effective model for the dynamics of an excluded-volume chain under confinement, by extending the formalism of Rouse modes. We make specific predictions about the behavior of the modes for a single polymer…
