Cold atoms in dissipative optical lattices exhibit an unusual transport behaviour that cannot
be described within Boltzmann–Gibbs statistical mechanics. New theoretical tools and …

Recent advances in single molecule experiments have raised many challenges. These
challenges can be met by a proper understanding of the inter-and intra-molecular …

We study the effect of resetting on diffusion in a logarithmic potential. In this model, a particle
diffusing in a potential U (x)= U 0 log| x| is reset, ie, taken back to its initial position, with a …

As a key molecule of life, Deoxyribo-Nucleic Acid (DNA) is the focus of numbers of
investigations with the help of biological, chemical and physical techniques. From a physical …

We investigate the diffusion of particles in an attractive one-dimensional potential that grows
logarithmically for large| x| using the Fokker-Planck equation. An eigenfunction expansion …

Diffusion occurs in numerous physical systems throughout nature, drawing its generality
from the universality of the central limit theorem. Approximately a century ago it was realized …

In both eukaryotic and prokaryotic DNA sequences of 30–100 base-pairs rich in AT base-
pairs have been identified at which the double helix preferentially unwinds. Such DNA …

The issue of the nucleation and slow closure mechanisms of non-superhelical stress-
induced denaturation bubbles in DNA is tackled using coarse-grained MetaDynamics and …

When pulled along the axis, double-strand DNA undergoes a large conformational change
and elongates by roughly twice its initial contour length at a pulling force of about 70 pN. The …

Literature data on the properties of DNA open states are reviewed and analyzed. These
states are formed as a result of strong DNA fluctuations and have a great impact on a …
