Branched Poly(phenylacetylene)

On Branched

For any n > 1, we construct examples branched Ga-lois coverings M → P n where M is one of (P 1) n , C n and (B 1) n , and B 1 is the 1-ball. In terms of orbifolds, this amounts to giving examples of orbifolds over P n uniformized by M .

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...

From branched self-assemblies to branched mesoporous silica nanoribbons.

Branched left-handed twisted mesoporous silica nanoribbons were prepared via a template method.

Collapse 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...
