Smoothing Effect of Quenched Disorder on Polymer Depinning Transitions Giambattista Giacomin and Fabio Lucio Toninelli
We consider general disordered models of pinning of directed polymers on a defect line. This class contains in particular the (1 + 1)–dimensional interface wetting model, the disordered Poland–Scheraga model of DNA denaturation and other (1 + d)– dimensional polymers in interaction with flat interfaces. We consider also the case of copolymers with adsorption at a selective interface. Under quit...

متن کاملThe Effect of Disorder on Polymer Depinning Transitions
We consider a polymer, with monomer locations modeled by the trajectory of a Markov chain, in the presence of a potential that interacts with the polymer when it visits a particular site 0. We assume that probability of an excursion of length n is given by nφ(n) for some 1 < c < 2 and slowly varying φ. Disorder is introduced by having the interaction vary from one monomer to another, as a const...
متن کاملIvy on the Ceiling: First-order Polymer Depinning Transitions with Quenched Disorder
We consider a polymer, with monomer locations modeled by the trajectory of an underlying Markov chain, in the presence of a potential that interacts with the polymer when it visits a particular site 0. Disorder is introduced by having the interaction vary from one monomer to another, as a constant u plus i.i.d. mean-0 randomness. There is a critical value of u above which the polymer is pinned,...
متن کاملReview of liquid-crystal phase transitions with quenched random disorder
Recent experimental and theoretical efforts have focused on using liquid-crystal systems as a test bed for understanding the statistical mechanics of quenched random disorder. In particular, the weakly first-order isotropic to nematic (I–N) and the second-order nematic to smectic-A (N–SmA) phase transitions have been intensely studied under two, topologically distinct configurations: (I) confin...
