We present an analysis of a partially directed walk model of a polymer which at one end is tethered to a sticky surface and at the other end is subjected to a pulling force at fixed angle away from the point of tethering. Using the kernel…

We investigate self-avoiding walk models of linear block copolymers adsorbed at a surface and desorbed by the action of a force. We rigorously establish the dependence of the free energy on the adsorption and force parameters, and the form…

We consider a simple cubic lattice self-avoiding walk model of 3-star polymers adsorbed at a surface and then desorbed by pulling with an externally applied force. We determine rigorously the free energy of the model in terms of properties…

Two ring polymers close to each other in space may be either in a segregated phase if there is a strong repulsion between monomers in the polymers, or intermingle in a mixed phase if there is a strong attractive force between the monomers.…

We study the phase behavior of a symmetric binary polymer blend which is confined into a thin film. The film surfaces interact with the monomers via short range potentials. We calculate the phase behavior within the self-consistent field…

We perform numerical simulations of an active fully flexible self-avoiding polymer as a function of the quality of the embedding solvent described in terms of an effective monomer-monomer interaction. Specifically, by extracting the Flory…

Recently it has been shown that a two-dimensional model of self-attracting polymers based on attracting segments with the addition of stiffness displays three phases: a swollen phase, a globular, liquid-like phase, and an anisotropic…

The scaling properties of self-avoiding tethered membranes at the tricritical point (theta-point) are studied by perturbative renormalization group methods. To treat the 3-body repulsive interaction (known to be relevant for polymers), new…

Extensive coarse grained molecular dynamics simulations are performed to investigate the conformational phase diagram of a neutral polymer in the presence of attractive crowders. We show that, for low crowded densities, the polymer…

We analyze the effective triplet interactions between the centers of star polymers in a good solvent. Using an analytical short distance expansion inspired by scaling theory, we deduce that the triplet part of the three-star force is…

We construct a random surface model with a string susceptibility exponent one quarter by taking an Ising model on a random surface and introducing an additional degree of freedom which amounts to allowing certain outgrowths on the surfaces.…

We study an ensemble of branched polymers which are embedded on other branched polymers. This is a toy model which allows us to study explicitly the reaction of a statistical system on an underlying geometrical structure, a problem of…

We analyze the phase diagrams of self-avoiding walk models of uniform branched polymers adsorbed at a surface and subject to an externally applied vertical pulling force which, at critical values, desorbs the polymer. In particular, models…

We present a generalized theory for studying phase separation in blends of polymers containing dipoles on their backbone. The theory is used to construct co-existence curves and to study the effects of dipolar interactions on interfacial…

Semiflexible polymers in poor solvents exhibit a rich variety of collapsed morphologies, including globules, toroids, and rodlike bundles, arising from the competition between attractive interactions and chain stiffness. Computer…

The model of a scalar field with quartic self-interaction on the fuzzy sphere has three known phases: a uniformly ordered phase, a disordered phase and a non-uniformly ordered phase, the last of which has no classical counterpart. These…

We present a numerical study of forced polymer translocation by using two separate pore models. Both of them have been extensively used in previous forced translocation studies. We show that variations in the pore model affect the forced…

We deduce the qualitative phase diagram of a long flexible neutral polymer chain immersed in a poor solvent near an attracting surface using phenomenological arguments. The actual positions of the phase boundaries are estimated numerically…

We start with a discussion of a phase diagram and three special collision energies: (i) the first touching of the mixed phase; (ii) the softest point; (iii) the critical point. We then proceed to more details about the role a massless…

We study several models of staircase polygons on the $45^\circ$ rotated square lattice, which interact with an impenetrable surface while also being pushed towards or pulled away from the surface by a force. The surface interaction is…
