Entropy in the Coil-to-Globule Transition of Macromolecules : Insights from Simple Models

The coil to globule transition is a fundamental phenomenon in the physics of macro-molecules by reason of the multiplicity of arrangements of their conformation. Such conformational freedom is the main source of entropy in the molecule and is the main oppo ...

Feedback topology and XOR-dynamics in Boolean networks with varying input structure

We analyze a model of fixed in-degree random Boolean networks in which the fraction of input-receiving nodes is controlled by the parameter gamma. We investigate analytically and numerically the dynamics of graphs under a parallel XOR updating scheme. This ...

First-order coil-globule transition driven by vibrational entropy

Paolo De Los Rios, Francesco Piazza, Carlo Maffi

By shifting the balance between conformational entropy and internal energy, polymers modify their shape under external stimuli, such as changes in temperature. Prominent among such transformations is the coil-globule transition, whereby a polymer can switc ...
