Using Monte Carlo dynamics and the Monte Carlo Histogram Method, the simple three-dimensional 27 monomer lattice copolymer is examined in depth. The thermodynamic properties of various sequences are examined contrasting the behavior of good…
We propose an off-lattice model for a self-avoiding homopolymer chain with two different competing attractive interactions, mimicking the hydrophobic effect and the hydrogen bond formation respectively. By means of Monte Carlo simulations,…
We have performed parallel tempering Monte Carlo simulations using a simple continuum heteropolymer model for proteins. All ten heteropolymer sequences which we have studied have shown first-order transitions at low temperature to ordered…
We study a single self avoiding hydrophilic hydrophobic polymer chain, through Monte Carlo lattice simulations. The affinity of monomer $i$ for water is characterized by a (scalar) charge $\lambda_{i}$, and the monomer-water interaction is…
We present a lattice Monte Carlo simulation for a multiblock copolymer chain of length N=240 and microarchitecture $(10-10)_{12}$.The simulation was performed using the Monte Carlo method with the Metropolis algorithm. We measured average…
We report the results of Monte Carlo simulations investigating the effect of a spherical confinement within a simple model for a flexible homopolymer. We use the parallel tempering method combined with multi-histogram reweighting analysis…
We develop the hybrid Monte Carlo method for simulations of single off-lattice polymer chains. We discuss implementation and choice of simulation parameters in some detail. The performance of the algorithm is tested on models for…
We investigate a lattice model of polymers where the nearest-neighbour monomer-monomer interaction strengths differ according to whether the local configurations have so-called ``hydrogen-like'' formations or not. If the interaction…
In view of recent intense experimental and theoretical interests in the biophysics of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), heteropolymer models with chain molecules configured as self-avoiding…
We use complete enumeration and Monte Carlo techniques to study two-dimensional self-avoiding polymer chains with quenched ``charges'' $\pm 1$. The interaction of charges at neighboring lattice sites is described by $q_i q_j$. We find that…
The phase structure of a homopolymer chain is investigated in terms of a universal theoretical model, designed to describe the infrared limit of slow spatial variations. The effects of chirality are studied and compared with the influence…
Microphase separated structure consisting of the periodic alternation of the layers of stretched homopolymer chains surrounded by perpendicularly oriented oligomeric tails is studied for both, strongly bonded (ionic) systems and weakly…
We study the thermodynamic behavior of a simple off-lattice model for protein folding. The model is two-dimensional and has two different ``amino acids''. Using numerical simulations of all chains containing eight or ten monomers, we…
A minimal off-lattice model for alpha-helical proteins is presented. It is based on hydrophobicity forces and sequence independent local interactions. The latter are chosen so as to favor the formation of alpha-helical structure. They model…
Based on large-scale Monte Carlo simulations on lattice the energy probability distribution functions are investigated for a large set of primary sequences in distinct models of copolymers at low temperatures below transitions to compacted…
In this work, we report our results on the phase transition of a flexible homopolymer from a stretched chain to a compact globule. The Wang-landau method is used to study the thermodynamic properties of a the chain up to 512 monomers. We…
This report deals with phase transition in Bond Fluctuation Model (BFM) of a linear homo polymer on a two dimensional square lattice. Each monomer occupies a unit cell of four lattice sites. The condition that a lattice site can at best be…
Histogram-reweighting grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations are used to obtain the critical properties of lattice chains composed of solvophilic and solvophobic monomers. The model is a modification of one proposed by Larson \emph{et al.}…
We have performed multicanonical simulations of hydrophobic-hydrophilic heteropolymers with two simple effective, coarse-grained off-lattice models to study the influence of specific interactions in the models on conformational transitions…
By simulating the first order globule-crystal transition of a flexible homopolymer chain, both by collision dynamics and Monte Carlo with non-kinetic moves, we show that the effective and the thermodynamic transition temperatures are…
