Density fluctuations of polymers in disordered media.
We study self-avoiding random walks in an environment where sites are excluded randomly, in two and three dimensions. For a single polymer chain, we study the statistics of the time averaged monomer density and show that these are well described by multifractal statistics. This is true even far from the percolation transition of the disordered medium. We investigate solutions of chains in a dis...
متن کاملStructural crossover of polymers in disordered media.
We present a unified scaling theory for the structural behavior of polymers embedded in a disordered energy substrate. An optimal polymer configuration is defined as the polymer configuration that minimizes the sum of interacting energies between the monomers and the substrate. The fractal dimension of the optimal polymer in the limit of strong disorder (SD) was found earlier to be larger than ...
متن کاملFluctuations in fluid invasion into disordered media.
Interfaces moving in a disordered medium exhibit stochastic velocity fluctuations obeying universal scaling relations related to the presence or absence of conservation laws. For fluid invasion of porous media, we show that the fluctuations of the velocity are governed by a geometry-dependent length scale arising from fluid conservation. This result is compared to the statistics resulting from ...
متن کاملMultifractal behavior of linear polymers in disordered media.
The scaling behavior of linear polymers in disordered media modeled by self-avoiding random walks (SAWs) on the backbone of two- and three-dimensional percolation clusters at their critical concentrations p(c) is studied. All possible SAW configurations of N steps on a single backbone configuration are enumerated exactly. We find that the moments of order q of the total number of SAWs obtained ...
متن کاملAnomalous fluctuations of directed polymers in random media.
A systematic analysis of large scale fluctuations in the low temperature pinned phase of a directed polymer in a random potential is described. These fluctuations come from rare regions with nearly degenerate “ground states”. The probability distribution of their sizes is found to have a power law tail. The rare regions in the tail dominate much of the physics. The analysis presented here takes...
