The effect of stiffness in a 2D living polymer system is investigated by Monte-Carlo simulation in a canonical ensemble. As
the flexibility decreases, the mean chain contour length decreases and goes through a local maximum. The mean end to end square distance shows a non-monotonic behaviour due to the
coil-to-rod transition and the decrease in chain contour length. Near the maximum of chain ordering in the bulk, the chain
length distribution adapts itself to increase the configurational entropy. With the parameters used in this simulation, it
seems that the effect of the stiffness for high stiffness is to decrease as in the isotropic case, since the ordering decreases again.

A living polymer system is used to study the effect of concentration on a broad, polydisperse two-dimensional polymer system.
It is found that the mean squared end-to-end radius of a chain of L monomers does not decrease by following a simple power law of the concentration but by a function of the form . An origin for such a behaviour is proposed.

The adsorption of a single ideal polymer chain on energetically heterogeneous and rough surfaces is investigated using a variational
procedure introduced by Garel and Orland (Phys. Rev. B 55, 226 (1997)). The mean polymer size is calculated perpendicular and parallel to the surface and is compared to the Gaussian
conformation and to the results for polymers at flat and energetically homogeneous surfaces. The disorder-induced enhancement
of adsorption is confirmed and is shown to be much more significant for a heterogeneous interaction strength than for spatial
roughness. This difference also applies to the localization transition, where the polymer size becomes independent of the
chain length. The localization criterion can be quantified, depending on an effective interaction strength and the length
of the polymer chain.

We use an off-lattice microscopic model for solutions of equilibrium polymers (EP) in a lamellar shear flow generated by means
of a self-consistent external field between parallel hard walls. The individual conformations of the chains are found to elongate
in flow direction and shrink perpendicular to it while the average polymer length decreases with increasing shear rate. The
Molecular Weight Distribution of the chain lengths retains largely its exponential form in dense solutions whereas in dilute
solutions it changes from a power-exponential Schwartz distribution to a purely exponential one upon an increase of the shear
rate. With growing shear rate the system becomes increasingly inhomogeneous so that a characteristic variation of the total
monomer density, the diffusion coefficient, and the center-of-mass distribution of polymer chains of different contour length
with the velocity of flow is observed. At higher temperature, as the average chain length decreases significantly, the system is shown to undergo an order-disorder transition
into a state of nematic liquid crystalline order with an easy direction parallel to the hard walls. The influence of shear
flow on this state is briefly examined.

For two particles in a disordered chain of length L with on-site interaction U, a duality transformation maps the behavior at weak interaction onto the behavior at strong interaction. Around the fixed
point of this transformation, the interaction yields a maximum mixing of the one body states. When (the one particle localization length), this mixing results in weak chaos accompanied by multifractal wave functions and
critical spectral statistics, as in the one particle problem at the mobility edge or in certain pseudo-integrable billiards.
In one dimension, a local interaction can only yield this weak chaos but can never drive the two particle system to full chaos
with Wigner-Dyson statistics.

A theoretical model of the extension and confinement of globular polysoaps predicts novel force laws. Polysoaps are polymers
comprising of a flexible hydrophilic backbone incorporating, at intervals, amphiphilic monomers. The equilibrium configuration
of long polysoaps, that form numerous spherical intrachain micelles, is a spherical globule of close packed micelles. The
coupling of the deformation to the hierarchical self organization of the chain gives rise to a distinctive force law involving,
for extension, two plateau regimes. When the chain is stretched by extensional flow the two regimes merge and the polysoap
exhibits a single globule-stretch transition.

We give a detailed analysis of the intersection properties of polymers. Using the renormalization group we provide a full
crossover function for the dependence of the number of intersections in a single polymer on chain length and excluded volume
strength. We compare our results with Monte-Carlo data and with exact calculations for a random walk, finding good agreement
in all respects. Restricting to the vicinity of the eight ternary fixed points we also calculate the number of intersections
between two chains placed at a fixed distance, including the two halves of a block-copolymer. The analysis of these systems
confirms the interpretation of the different contributions to the number of intersections in a single chain. Due to the highly
nontrivial character of the correlations in a polymer chain the correction exponents in both cases however are different.
None of the results can be extracted from any Flory-type estimate.

Secondary domain superstructures in correlated random block copolymers are considered theoretically using the concept of the
second order parameter related to fluctuations of the local mean block length. It is shown that the size of secondary domains,

that separation of the system in two macroscopic phases with different primary morphologies predicted earlier using the free
energy expansion up to ( is the usual order parameter related to local composition) is an artifact of this widely accepted theoretical model.

Using renormalization techniques, we provide rigorous computer-assisted bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of the boundary
of Siegel discs. Specifically, for Siegel discs with golden mean rotation number and quadratic critical points we show that
the Hausdorff dimension is less than 1.08523. This is done by exploiting a previously found renormalization fixed point and
expressing the Siegel disc boundary as the attractor of an associated Iterated Function System.

The effect of the ratio of block lengths on the interfacial partitioning of poly(styrene-block-1,4 isoprene) diblock copolymers
from their mixtures with polystyrene homopolymer melt is investigated utilizing a series of copolymers with almost constant
molecular weight but different compositions. The concentration profile of the copolymer is measured directly using the nuclear reaction analysis technique; a segregation of the diblock is found at both the air/polymer surface, due to the lower
surface energy of polyisoprene, and at the substrate/polymer interface. No significant effect of the block length ratio on
the free-surface excess was observed. The block molecular weights have apparently led to dangling chain conformations in the
non-overlapping mushroom and in the overlapping mushroom regimes whereas the brush regime was not accessible; no indications
of a real border between the two former regimes was found.

The stress-elongation relations at large deformations for the polymer network chains with randomcoiled and supercoiled conformations are investigated
using the polysiloxane networks with high elongations at break far over 10. Supercoil is the conformation of network chains
in deswollen polymer networks which are made by removing solvent from the networks crosslinked in solutions at low polymer
concentrations. The validity of the scaling concept of Pincus blob for the mechanical response of a polymer chain is experimentally
confirmed for the network composed of randomcoiled chains. The analysis of the stress- relations for the deswollen networks comprised of supercoiled chains on the basis of the Pincus blob concept suggests that
supercoil is a much more contracted conformation relative to randomcoil.

We study the scattering intensity of dilute and semi-dilute solutions of star polymers. The star conformation is described
by a model introduced by Daoud and Cotton. In this model, a single star is regarded as a spherical region of a semi-dilute
polymer solution with a local, position dependent screening length. For high enough concentrations, the outer sections of
the arms overlap and build a semi-dilute solution (a sea of blobs) where the inner parts of the actual stars are embedded.
The scattering function is evaluated following a method introduced by Auvray and de Gennes. In the dilute regime there are
three regions in the scattering function: the Guinier region (low wave vectors, ) from where the radius of the star can be extracted; the intermediate region () that carries the signature of the form factor of a star with f arms: ; and a high wavevector zone () where the local swollen structure of the polymers gives rise to the usual q
-5/3
decay. In the semi-dilute regime the different stars interact strongly, and the scattered intensity acquires two new features:
a liquid peak that develops at a reciprocal position corresponding to the star-star distances; and a new large wavevector
contribution of the form q
-5/3
originating from the sea of blobs.

We analyze the structure of two dimensional disordered cellular systems generated by extensive computer simulations. These
cellular structures are studied as topological trees rooted on a central cell or as closed shells arranged concentrically
around a germ cell. We single out the most significant parameters that characterize statistically the organization of these
patterns. Universality and specificity in disordered cellular structures are discussed.

Quantum scattering is studied in a system consisting of randomly distributed point scatterers in the strip. The model is continuous
yet exactly solvable. Varying the number of scatterers (the sample length) we investigate a transition between the ballistic
and the localized regimes. By considering the cylinder geometry and introducing the magnetic flux we are able to study time
reversal symmetry breaking in the system. Both macroscopic (conductance) and microscopic (eigenphases distribution, statistics
of S-matrix elements) characteristics of the system are examined.

We present a one-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation for the diffusion motion of a chain of N beads. We found that the scaling exponent for the viscosity can be smaller or greater than 3. This anomalous behavior cannot be attributed to the diffusivity scaling or the length fluctuations but is due to the chain dynamics details
during diffusion in which the end beads play the key role. The viscosity exponent 3 and its expected relation with the diffusivity
exponent are recovered in the asymptotic regime (N ↦∞).

We calculate the photon emission of a high finesse cavity moving in vacuum. The cavity is treated as an open system. The field
initially in the vacuum state accumulates a dephasing depending on the mirrors motion when bouncing back and forth inside
the cavity. The dephasing is not linearized in our calculation, so that qualitatively new effects like pulse shaping in the
time domain and frequency up-conversion in the spectrum are found. Furthermore we predict the existence of a threshold above
which the system should show self-sustained oscillations.

Using small-angle X-ray scattering, the repeat distance vs. temperature is measured for a homologous series of multilamellar vesicles of lecithins with varying acyl chain length in
excess water condition around the lipid main transition. A systematic chain length dependence is found which is in accordance
with a bending rigidity renormalization and critical unbinding of the lamellae close to the transition, as previously suggested
in H?nger et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 72, 3911 (1994)].

We utilized a blue-detuned Laguerre-Gaussian (doughnut) laser beam to trap cold rubidium atoms by optical dipole force. ”Pulsed”
polarization gradient cooling was applied to the trapped atoms to suppress the trap loss due to heating caused by random photon
scattering of the trapping light. In this trap about 108 atoms were initially captured and the trap lifetime was 1.5 s, which was consistent with losses due to background gas collisions.
This trap can readily be applied to atom guiding, compression, and evaporative cooling.

The simulation of a two-dimensional, broadly polydisperse, living polymers system at high concentration reveals an unusual
conformational behaviour for the longer chains. Unlike in three dimensions, the longer chains are not swollen but are squeezed
by the smaller chains. This observation is discussed in terms of a two dimensional solvent- polymer mixture whose solvent
particules are larger than the polymer monomers.

We present a Bethe Ansatz based investigation of a one-dimensional (1D) Heisenberg spin chain in a real 3D crystal lattice.
We have shown that due to an influence of the lattice distortion on a crystalline field of ligands of magnetic ions, a Heisenberg
antiferromagnetic spin chain is unstable under the appearance of a magnetic anisotropy of the “easy-plane” type. The effects of an external magnetic
field and nonzero temperature onto such a phase transition are studied.
