84 APPENDIX B. CALCULATION FOR THE CONFINED POLYMER the first integral is calculated here, the others are evaluated in the same way, s s ′ s (τ−s ′ )/ld dτ dτ dx e −x sin x − π 4 s ′ 0 dτ ′ K(τ − τ ′ ) = −ld s ′ s = ld √2 = l2 d √2 = l2 d 2 dτ e τ/ld s ′ (s−s ′ )/ld τ−s′ − ld sin 0 1 √2 − e s−s′ ld sin s − l + e d sin s ld τ − s′ ld dy e −y sin y − τ − l − e d sin τ ld s ′ /ld s/ld ′ s − s + ld π 4 ′ s − π s′ − l − e d sin 4 ld dz e −z sin z − π . (B.9) 4 The trigonometric relations used can be found in [1]. Calculating the remaining integrals and combining the results gives 〈R(s) · R(s ′ )〉 = 1 − ld ss 2 lp ′ + l3 d 2 √ e 2 lp − |s−s′ | ′ |s − s | ld sin + ld π 4 s − s l − e d sin + ld π s′ ′ − s l − e d sin + 4 ld π + 4 1 (B.10) √ 2 valid for all s, s ′ . From this result the mean-square end-to-end distance is obtained in the lines following eq. (3.37). B.3 Parallel end-to-end distance correlation The mean-square end-to-end distance is calculated in detail, by inserting the derivatives of the average undulations eqs. (3.30) and (3.31) in eq. (3.40) ˙R||(s) ˙ R||(s ′ ) = d2 ds ds ′ R||(s)R||(s ′ ) = 1 − ld + 2 lp l2 d 16 l2 p + l2 d 8 l2 e p −2 |s−s′ | ld sin 2 ′ |s − s | − ld π 4 =〈 ˙r ||(s) ˙r ||(s ′ )〉 . (B.11) An integration for s ≥ s ′ yields the desired result for the projected length correlation R||(s)R||(s ′ ) s s ′ = dτ dτ 0 0 ′ R||(s) ˙ ˙ R||(s ′ ) = 1 − ld + 2 lp l2 d 16 l2 ss p ′ + l2 d 8 l2 s s ′ dt dt p 0 0 ′ K(|τ − τ ′ |), (B.12)
B.3. PARALLEL END-TO-END DISTANCE CORRELATION 85 with K(x) = e −2x/ld sin 2 (x/ld − π/4)). The integration over K(|τ − τ ′ |) has to be treated as in eq. (B.8). Evaluating only the first integral explicitly τ 0 dτ ′ K(τ − τ ′ ) = 1 2 τ dτ 0 ′ τ−τ′ −2 l e d 0 and performing the second integration gives s ′ 0 dτ τ 0 dτ ′ K(τ − τ ′ ) = ld 8 1 − cos ld ′ τ − τ 2 − ld π 4 = − ld dx e 4 2τ/ld −x (1 − sin x) = ld 2τ − l 1 + e d −2 + sin 8 2τ + cos 2τ , (B.13) s ′ 2τ − l dτ 1 + e d −2 + sin 0 2τ + cos ld 2τ ld = l2 2s ′ /ld d dτ 16 0 1 − 2e −x + e −x (sin x + cos x) = l2 d 16 2s ′ ld 2s′ − l + e d ld 2 − cos 2s′ ld ld 2s′ − l + e d 2 − cos 2s′ ld − 1 . (B.14) The remaining integrals are treated equivalently. Finally we obtain the following result valid for all s and s ′ R||(s)R||(s ′ ) = 1 − ld ss 2 lp ′ + r||(s)r||(s ′ ) = 1 − ld + 2 lp l2 d 16 l2 ss p ′ + l3 d 32 l2 min(s, s p ′ ) + l4 d 128 l2 − e p −2 |s−s′ | ld 2 − cos 2 |s − s′ | (B.15) ld 2s − l + e d 2 − cos 2s − 1 . This result is used in the lines following eq. (3.41).
