We use molecular dynamics simulations to explore concentrated solutions of semiflexible
polyelectrolyte ring polymers, akin to the DNA mini-circles, with counterions of different …

The thermal properties of coarse-grained knotted copolymer rings fluctuating in a highly
screening solution are investigated on a simple cubic lattice using the Wang-Landau Monte …

We used Langevin dynamics simulations to study coarse-grained knotted copolyelectrolytes,
composed by a neutral and a charged segment, in solutions of different salt concentrations …

Using Langevin dynamics simulations and a coarse-grained primitive model of electrolytes,
we show that the behavior of knotted circular strong polyelectrolytes (PEs) in diluted …

The presence of salts in a solution containing weak polyelectrolytes is known to modify both
their titration behavior and conformations due to electrostatic screening. Instead, little is …

Mechanically bonded membranes of interlocked ring polymers are a significant
generalization of conventional elastic sheets, where connectivity is provided by covalent …

Inspired by recent advances in the chromosome capture techniques, a method is proposed
to study the structural organization of systems of polymers rings with topological constraints …

The thermal properties of coarse grained knotted polymers containing two kinds of
monomers $ A $ and $ B $ fluctuating in a solution are investigated on a simple cubic lattice …

Knots in proteins and DNA are known to have significant effect on their equilibrium and
dynamic properties as well as on their function. While knot dynamics and thermodynamics in …
