We consider the phase transition induced by compressing a self-avoiding walk in a slab where the walk is attached to both walls of the slab in two and three dimensions, and the resulting phase once the polymer is compressed. The process of…
We study quenched disordered polymerized membranes in their flat phase by means of a three-loop perturbative analysis performed in dimension $D = 4-\epsilon$. We derive the renormalization group equations at this order and solve them up to…
We study the conformational properties of polymers in presence of extended columnar defects of parallel orientation. Two classes of macromolecules are considered: the so-called partially directed polymers with preferred orientation along…
We investigated the influence of short- and long-range correlated quenched disorder introduced into the medium on the process of adsorption of long-flexible polymer chains on a wall by using the field theoretical approach in $d=4-\epsilon$…
We study the dynamics of a polymer or a D-dimensional elastic manifold diffusing and convected in a non-potential static random flow (the ``randomly driven polymer model''). We find that short-range (SR) disorder is relevant for d < 4 for…
In this article we study a \emph{non-directed polymer model} on $\mathbb Z$, that is a one-dimensional simple random walk placed in a random environment. More precisely, the law of the random walk is modified by the exponential of the sum…

We calculate the two, three, four, and five-body (state independent) effective potentials between the centers of mass (CM) of self avoiding walk polymers by Monte-Carlo simulations. For full overlap, these coarse-grained n-body interactions…
The purpose of this paper is to study a one-dimensional polymer penalized by its range and placed in a random environment $\omega$. The law of the simple symmetric random walk up to time $n$ is modified by the exponential of the sum of…
Partial summations of perturbation expansions of the directed polymer in disordered media (DPRM) enables one to represent the latter as skeleton expansions in powers of the effective coupling constant $\Delta (t)$, which corresponds to the…
We use renormalization group to calculate the reunion and survival exponents of a set of random walkers interacting with a long range $1/r^2$ and a short range interaction. These exponents are used to study the binding-unbinding transition…
Some recent work pointed out the usefulness of taking a large-deviation perspective when trying to extract anything resembling a macroscopic order parameter from a computer simulation. In this paper we note that the end-to-end distance of…
We consider polymers in which M randomly selected pairs of monomers are restricted to be in contact. Analytical arguments and numerical simulations show that an ideal (Gaussian) chain of N monomers remains expanded as long as M<<N; its mean…
We analyze the probability of a single loop formation in a long flexible polymer chain in disordered environment in $d$ dimensions. The structural defects are considered to be correlated on large distances $r$ according to a power law $\sim…
A solvable model of directed polymer with matrix-valued disorder is introduced in arXiv:2203.14868. The disorder is made of $d\times d$ inverse-Wishart random matrices, so that the model nicely generalizes the well-studied log-gamma…
The asymptotic behaviour of the survival or reunion probability of vicious walks with short-range interactions is generally well studied. In many realistic processes, however, walks interact with a long ranged potential that decays in $d$…
We present a unified scaling theory for the structural behavior of polymers embedded in a disordered energy substrate. An optimal polymer configuration is defined as the polymer configuration that minimizes the sum of interacting energies…

We analyze the statistics of loops formation in $f$-branched star polymers in an environment with structural defects, correlated at large distances $r$ according to a power law $\sim r^{-a}$. Applying the direct polymer renormalization…
Equivalence of the influence of quenched and annealed disorder on scaling properties of long flexible polymer chains is proved by analyzing the O(m)-symmetric field theory in polymer (de Gennes) limit m \to 0. Additional symmetry properties…
