A simple model of a sequence-reading diffusion: non-self-averaging and self-averaging properties [PDF]
arXivMotivated by a question about the sensitivity of knots' diffusive motion to the actual sequence of nucleotides placed on a given DNA, here we study a simple model of a sequence-reading diffusion on a stretched chain with a frozen sequence of "letters" $A$ and $B$, having different interaction energies. The chain contains a single distortion - a hernia -
