Collapse transition of short polymers on simple cubic lattice

Denatured proteins and polymers exhibit two types of conformations in solution. Extended coil conformation and compact globule conformation. There is a phase transition associated with these conformation change as a function of temperature or solvent concentration etc. These phase transition is usua...

Summary:Denatured proteins and polymers exhibit two types of conformations in solution. Extended coil conformation and compact globule conformation. There is a phase transition associated with these conformation change as a function of temperature or solvent concentration etc. These phase transition is usually studied using Self Avoiding Walk(SAW). We have generated Self avoiding walk using chain growth algorithm. Here we have compared our generated density of states with Exact enumerated data of the same. Also we have presented the Pseudo order parameter method to identify collapse temperature. The results are compared with Partition function zero analysis.
