Comment on " A simple model for DNA denaturation"
Somendra M. Bhattacharjee
TL;DR
This paper critiques a proposed DNA denaturation model, arguing that replacing mutual avoidance with a long-range interaction conflicts with established renormalization group principles.
Contribution
It provides a critical analysis showing the inconsistency of a specific long-range interaction model with renormalization group theory.
Findings
The long-range interaction model contradicts renormalization group arguments.
Mutual avoidance cannot be replaced by the proposed long-range interaction without inconsistency.
The critique challenges the validity of the model for DNA denaturation studies.
Abstract
The replacment of mutual avoidance of polymers by a long-range interaction of the type proposed by Garel etal (Europhys. Lett. 55, 132 (2001), cond-mat/0101058) is inconsistent with the prevalent renormalization group arguments.
