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 …

DNA is not only an essential object of study for biologists—it also raises very interesting
questions for physicists. This paper discuss its nonlinear dynamics, its statistical mechanics …

The review is devoted to a new and rapidly develo** area related to the application of
ideas and methods of nonlinear mathematics and theoretical physics to study the internal …

DNA denaturation is related to many important biological phenomena, such as its
replication, transcription and the interaction with some specific proteins for single-stranded …

By extending the classical Peyrard–Bishop model, we are able to obtain a fully analytical
description for the mechanical response of DNA under stretching at variable values of …

The study and the investigation of structural and dynamical properties of complex systems
have attracted considerable interest among scientists in general and physicists and …

When it is viewed at the scale of a base pair, DNA appears as a nonlinear lattice. Modelling
its properties is a fascinating goal. The detailed experiments that can be performed on this …

The imaginary time path integral formalism is applied to a nonlinear Hamiltonian for a short
fragment of heterogeneous DNA with a stabilizing solvent interaction term. Torsional effects …

Details of the reaction coordinate for DNA melting are fundamental to much of biology and
biotechnology. Recently, it has been shown experimentally that there are at least three …

The temperature dependence of energy, partition function, entropy and free energy,
describing a first-order-like phase transition of a DNA molecule is calculated based on the …
