SynopsisStudies theory and application of long wave-length properties of polymers. Utilizes statistical mechanics and employs simple models in developing predictive statistical mechanical theories of polymers, which are of great practical interest in technological applications and in understanding the biological use of polymer molecules. Topics covered include configurational statistics of polymer chains, functional integration, flexible polymer chains, the excluded volume problem, scaling theory, renormalization group description of polymer extended volume, use of perturbation and epsilon-expansions in renormalization group treatment of polymers, and much more.
