Semiflexible polymers confined in soft tubes

We discuss various conformations for a polymer (of persistent length l(p)) confined into a deformable tube (the wall being a lipid bilayer with a certain surface tension sigma and curvature energy K). Our study assumes that there is no adsorption of the chain on the wall. Three states are compared:...
