To study the localization of random heteropolymers at an interface separating two selective solvents within the model of Garel, Huse, Leibler and Orland, Europhys. Lett. {\bf 8} 9 (1989), we propose an approach based on a disorder-dependent…

Exact bounds are obtained for the quenched free energy of a polymer with random hydrophobicities in the presence of an interface separating a polar from a non polar solvent. The polymer may be ideal or have steric self-interactions. The…

According to recent progress in the finite size scaling theory of critical disordered systems, the nature of the phase transition is reflected in the distribution of pseudo-critical temperatures $T_c(i,L)$ over the ensemble of samples $(i)$…

We consider the adsorption of a random heteropolymer onto an interface within the model by Garel et al. [1] by taking into account self-interactions between the monomers. Within the replica trick and by using a self-consistent preaveraging…

In this article, I study the localization transition of an hydrophobic homopolymer in interaction with an interface between oil and water. To that aim I consider a model in which the trajectories of a simple random walk play the role of the…

We analyze a (1+1)-dimension directed random walk model of a polymer dipped in a medium constituted by two immiscible solvents separated by a flat interface. The polymer chain is heterogeneous in the sense that a single monomer may…

We consider a general model of a heterogeneous polymer chain fluctuating in the proximity of an interface between two selective solvents. The heterogeneous character of the model comes from the fact that the monomer units interact with the…

We study the phase transitions of a random copolymer chain with quenched disorder. We apply a replica variational approach based on a Gaussian trial Hamiltonian in terms of the correlation functions of monomer Fourier coordinates. This…

This paper studies a polymer chain in the vicinity of a linear interface separating two immiscible solvents. The polymer consists of random monomer types, while the interface carries random charges. Both the monomer types and the charges…

A lattice model of a hetero-polymer with random hydrophilic-hydrophobic charges interacting with the solvent is introduced, whose continnuum counterpart has been proposed by T. Garel, L. Leibler and H. Orland {J. Phys. II France 4, 2139…

We consider two different problems involving the localization of a single polymer chain: (i) a periodic $AB$ copolymer at a selective fluid-fluid interface, with the upper (resp. lower) fluid attracting $A$ (resp. $B$) monomers (ii) a…

We consider adsorption of random copolymer chains onto an interface within the model of Garel et al. Europhysics Letters 8, 9 (1989). By using the replica method the adsorption of the copolymer at the interface is mapped onto the problem of…

We investigate the localization of a hydrophobic - polar (HP) - regular copolymer at a selective solvent-solvent interface with emphasis on the impact of block length $M$ on the copolymer behavior. The considerations are based on simple…

Using the supersymmetry technique, we study the localization-delocalization transition in quasi-one-dimensional non-Hermitian systems with a direction. In contrast to chains, our model captures the diffusive character of carriers' motion at…

We study a single statistical amphiphilic copolymer chain AB in a selective solvent (e.g.water). Two situations are considered. In the annealed case, hydrophilic (A) and hydrophobic (B) monomers are at local chemical equilibrium and both…

Thermal scaling and relaxation of the interface width in an electrophoretic deposition of polymer chains is examined by a three-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation on a discrete lattice. Variation of the equilibrium interface width $W_r$…

We address the problem of inverse polymer swelling. This phenomenon, in which a collapsed polymer chain swells upon decreasing temperature, can be observed experimentally in so-called thermoreversible homopolymers in aqueous solution, and…

Semi-flexible manifolds such as fluid membranes or semi-flexible polymers undergo delocalization transitions if they are subject to attractive interactions. We study manifolds with short-ranged interactions by field-theoretic methods based…

We consider a model of a random copolymer at a selective interface which undergoes a localization/delocalization transition. In spite of the several rigorous results available for this model, the theoretical characterization of the phase…

We study the behaviour of a hydrophobic chain near a hydrophobic boundary in two dimensions, using the decorated lattice model of Berkema and Widom [G.T. Barkema and B. Widom, J. Chem. Phys. 113, 2349 (2000)] to obtain effective,…
