Branched Polymers
Intended as models in chemistry or biology, branched polymers are often modeled, in turn, by lattice animals (trees on a grid); see, e.g., [3, 5, 8, 10, 18, 19]. However, continuum polymers turn out to be in some respects more tractable than their grid cousins. In order to study the behavior of branched polymers, and in particular to define and understand what random examples look like, we must...
متن کاملCollapse of branched polymers
2014 Exact calculations using transfer matrices on finite strips are performed to study the two-dimensional problem of one lattice animal with an attractive nearest neighbour interaction. Thermodynamic quantities such as specific heat, compressibility, thermal expansion are calculated. Finite size scaling with two strips of different widths yields very accurate approximations of the critical li...
متن کاملBranched Polymers and Dimensional Reduction
We establish an exact isomorphism between self-avoiding branched polymers in D + 2 continuum dimensions and the hard-core continuum gas at negative activity. We review conjectures and results on critical exponents for D + 2 = 2, 3, 4 and show that they are corollaries of our result. We explain the connection (first proposed by Parisi and Sourlas) between branched polymers in D + 2 dimensions an...
متن کاملBranched Polymers and Hyperplane Arrangements
We generalize the construction of connected branched polymers and the notion of the volume of the space of connected branched polymers studied by Brydges and Imbrie [BI], and Kenyon and Winkler [KW] to any hyperplane arrangement A. The volume of the resulting configuration space of connected branched polymers associated to the hyperplane arrangement A is expressed through the value of the chara...
متن کاملBranched Polymers under Shear
By employing a multiscale simulational approach that combines multiparticle-collision dynamics for the solvent with standard molecular dynamics for the monomers, we examine the behavior of dendritic macromolecules under shear. We analyze quantitatively the shape and anisotropy of the molecules and its dependence on the shear rate, the molecular generation, and the stiffness of the bonds. The ro...
