A scaling relation for the disjoining pressure of strongly confined polymer fluids is proposed for the first time, which yields directly the scaling exponent, nu, of the radius of gyration for polymers. To test the proposed scaling relation…

On the basis of the thermodynamic theory of the excluded volume effects, we show that the size exponent varies abruptly, depending on the change of the segment concentration. For linear polymers, the exponent changes discontinuously from…

The breakdown of dynamical scaling for a dilute polymer solution in 2D has been suggested by Shannon and Choy [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 79}, 1455 (1997)]. However, we show here both numerically and analytically that dynamical scaling holds…

We performed a series of simulations for a linear polymer chain in a solvent using dissipative particle dynamics to check the scaling relations for the end-to-end distance, radius of gyration and hydrodynamic radius in three dimensions. The…

We investigate the excluded volume effects in good solvents for the isolated comb polymers having $\nu_{0}=1/4$. In particular, we investigate the change of the size exponent, $\nu$, defined by $\langle s_{N}^{2}\rangle\propto N^{2\nu}$,…

We derive direct representations of the scaling functions of the 3d O(4) model which are relevant for comparisons to other models, in particular QCD. This is done in terms of expansions in the scaling variable z= t/h^{1/Delta}. The…

We propose a simple yet very predictive form, based on a Poisson's equation, for the functional dependence of the cost from the density of points in the Euclidean bipartite matching problem. This leads, for quadratic costs, to the analytic…

We show random polymer is diffusive in dimensions 1 and 2 in probability in an intermediate scaling regime. The scale is $\beta= o(N^{-1/4})$ in d=1 and $\beta=o((\log N)^{-1/2})$ in $d=2$ as $N\rightarrow \infty$.

We study universal aspects of polymer conformations and transverse fluctuations for a single swollen chain characterized by a contour length $L$ and a persistence length $\ell_p$ in two dimensions (2D) and in three dimensions (3D) in the…

We study the response of a granular system at rest to an instantaneous input of energy in a localised region. We present scaling arguments that show that, in $d$ dimensions, the radius of the resulting disturbance increases with time $t$ as…

The scaling behavior of a directed polymer in a two-dimensional (2D) random potential under confining force is investigated. The energy of a polymer with configuration $\{y(x)\}$ is given by $H\big(\{y(x)\}\big) = \sum_{x=1}^N \exyx +…

We present direct representations of the scaling functions of the 3d O(4) model which are relevant for comparisons to other models, in particular QCD. This is done in terms of expansions in the scaling variable z=t/h^{1/\beta\delta}. The…

We analyze the scaling laws for a set of two different species of long flexible polymer chains joined together at one of their extremities (copolymer stars) in space dimension D=2. We use a formerly constructed field-theoretic description…

We propose a scaling description of phase separation of polymer solutions. The scaling incorporates three universal limiting regimes: the Ising limit asymptotically close to the critical point of phase separation, the "ideal-gas" limit for…

The critical scaling of the large-$N$ $O(N)$ model in higher dimensions using the exact renormalization group equations has been studied, motivated by the recently found non-trivial fixed point in $4<d<6$ dimensions with metastable critical…

We study directed polymers subject to a quenched random potential in d transversal dimensions. This system is closely related to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation of nonlinear stochastic growth. By a careful analysis of the perturbation…

We introduce a simple geometric model which describes the kinetics of fragmentation of d-dimensional objects. In one dimension our model coincides with the random scission model and show a simple scaling behavior in the long-time limit. For…

We consider a one-dimensional directed polymer in a random potential which is characterized by the Gaussian statistics with the finite size local correlations. It is shown that the well-known Kardar's solution obtained originally for a…

We discuss in this paper various aspects of the off-critical $O(n)$ model in two dimensions. We find the ground-state energy conjectured by Zamolodchikov for the unitary minimal models, and extend the result to some non-unitary minimal…

In this paper in terms of the replica method we consider the high temperature limit of (2+1) directed polymers in a random potential and propose an approach which allows to compute the scaling exponent $\theta$ of the free energy…
