چکیده

We introduce and implement a Monte Carlo scheme to study the equilibrium statistics of polymers in the globular phase. It is based on a model of "interacting elastic lattice polymers" and allows a sufficiently good sampling of long and compact configurations, an essential prerequisite to study the scaling behavior of free energies. By simulating interacting self-avoiding rings at several temperatures in the collapsed phase, we estimate both the bulk and the surface free energy. Moreover from the corresponding estimate of the entropic exponent α-2 we provide evidence that, unlike for swollen and Θ-point rings, the hyperscaling relation is not satisfied for globular rings.

Ranking knots of random, globular polymer rings.

An analysis of extensive simulations of interacting self-avoiding polygons on cubic lattice shows that the frequencies of different knots realized in a random, collapsed polymer ring decrease as a negative power of the ranking order, and suggests that the total number of different knots realized grows exponentially with the chain length. Relative frequencies of specific knots converge to defini...

Effects of on-center impurity on energy levels of low-lying states in concentric double quantum rings

In this paper, the electronic eigenstates and energy spectra of single and two-interacting electrons confined in a concentric double quantum rings with a perpendicular magnetic field in the presence of         on-center donor and acceptor impurities are calculated using the exact diagonalization method. For a single electron case, the binding energy of on-center donor and acceptor impurities ar...

The categories of lattice-valued maps, equalities, free objects, and $mathcal C$-reticulation

In this paper, we study the concept of $mathcal C$-reticulation for the category $mathcal C$ whose objects are lattice-valued maps. The relation between the free objects in $mathcal C$ and the $mathcal C$-reticulation of rings and modules is discussed. Also, a method to construct $mathcal C$-reticulation is presented, in the case where $mathcal C$ is equational. Some relations between the conce...
