The real-space renormalization procedures on hierarchical lattices have been much studied for many disordered systems in the past at the level of their typical fluctuations. In the present paper, the goal is to analyze instead the…
Dimensional reduction occurs when the critical behavior of one system can be related to that of another system in a lower dimension. We show that this occurs for directed branched polymers (DBP) by giving an exact relationship between DBP…
We perform numerical simulations of isolated, partially active polymers, driven out-of-equilibrium by a fraction of their monomers. We show that, if the active beads are all gathered in a contiguous block, the position of the section along…
We investigate theoretically and numerically the effect of polymer additives on two-dimensional turbulence by means of a viscoelastic model. We provide compelling evidence that at vanishingly small concentrations, such that the polymers are…
The statistical mechanics of a linear non-interacting polymer chain with a large number of monomers is considered with fixed angular momentum. The radius of gyration for a linear polymer is derived exactly by functional integration. This…
This work is devoted to the study of scaling limits in small mutations and large time of the solutions u^$\epsilon$ of two deterministic models of phenotypic adaptation, where the parameter $\epsilon$ > 0 scales the size of mutations. The…
The aim of this paper is to investigate the distribution of a continuous homopolymer in the presence of an attractive finitely supported potential. The most intricate behavior can be observed if we simultaneously vary two parameters: the…
We present a simple reaction kinetics model to describe the polymer synthesis used by Lusignan et al. (PRE, 60, 5657, 1999) to produce randomly branched polymers in the vulcanization class. Numerical solution of the rate equations gives…
The overlap of a $d+1$ dimensional directed polymer of length $t$ in a random medium is studied using a Renormalization Group approach. In $d>2$ it vanishes at $T_c$ for $t\rightarrow \infty$ as $t^{\Sigma}$ where…
We study the depinning phase transition of a directed polymer in a $d$-dimensional space by a periodic potential localized on a straight line. We give exact formulas in all dimensions for the critical pinning we need to localize the…
The exact statistical-mechanical solution for the equilibrium properties, both thermodynamic and structural, of one-dimensional fluids of particles interacting via the triangle-well and the ramp potentials is worked out. In contrast to…
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…
We investigate $(2+1)$-dimensional discretized directed polymers in Gaussian random media. By numerically calculating the probability distribution function of overlap between two independent and identical systems on a common random…
In one-dimensional case the search for presence of the anomalous phenomena in multiplicity distributions is usually performed in frame of the horizontal, vertical and mixed types of the analysis. We show that if the data involve a…
Strongly correlated amorphous solids are a class of glass-formers whose inter-particle potential admits an approximate inverse power-law form in a relevant range of inter-particle distances. We study the steady-state plastic flow of such…
We reassess the relation between classical lattice dimer models and the continuum elastic description of a lattice of fluctuating polymers. In the absence of randomness we determine the density and line tension of the polymers in terms of…
We study polymers attached to spherical (circular) or paraboloidal (parabolic) probes in three (two) dimensions. Both self-avoiding and random walks are examined numerically. The behavior of a polymer of size $R_0$ attached to the tip of a…
The non-equilibrium structural and dynamical properties of semiflexible polymers confined to two dimensions are investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. Three different scenarios are considered: The force-extension relation of…
We review recent results of the field theoretical renormalization group analysis on the scaling properties of star polymers. We give a brief account of how the numerical values of the exponents governing the scaling of star polymers were…
A novel mathematical model for fiber-reinforced materials is proposed. It is based on a 1-dimensional beam model for the thin fiber structures, a flexible and general 3-dimensional elasticity model for the matrix and an overlapping domain…
