关于复合聚合物纽结分解为可分离素分支的问题

On the factorization of composite polymer knots into separated prime components

Luca Tubiana

摘要:

利用蒙特卡罗模拟和改进的纽结定位方法,分析了自由联结环上复合纽结素分量的长度和分布。对于增加轮廓长度,我们观察到复合结逐步分解成分离的素成分。然而,我们观察到,一个完整的因式分解,相当于“装饰环”的图片,没有得到即使是环的轮廓长度$N\simeq 3N_0$,大约几十倍的最可能的长度系在环上的素数结。装饰环假设已在文献中使用,以证明因式分解的复合结概率到其素组件的打结概率。根据我们的研究结果,我们认为,这样的假设可能是没有必要解释的打结概率的分解,至少当聚合物排除体积是不相关的。我们通过一个简单的一维模型,其中素结被随机放置在一个圆上的sliplinks取代,唯一的约束是,循环的长度具有相同的分布的相应的素结的长度合理化的系统的行为。

英文摘要:

Using Monte Carlo simulations and advanced knot localization methods, we analyze the length and distribution of prime components in composite knots tied on Freely Jointed Rings (FJRs). For increasing contour length, we observe the progressive factorization of composite knots into separated prime components. However, we observe that a complete factorization, equivalent to the "decorated ring" picture, is not obtained even for rings of contour lengths $N\simeq 3N_0$, about tens of times the most probable length of the prime knots tied on the rings. The decorated ring hypothesis has been used in literature to justify the factorization of composite knots probabilities into the knotting probabilities of their prime components. Following our results, we suggest that such hypothesis may not be necessary to explain the factorization of the knotting probabilities, at least when polymers excluded volume is not relevant. We rationalize the behavior of the system through a simple one dimensional model in which prime knots are replaced by sliplinks randomly placed on a circle, with the only constraint that the length of the loops has the same distribution of the length of the corresponding prime knots.
