Transition between Random and Periodic Electron Currents on a DNA Chain

Transition between Random and Periodic Electron Currents on a DNA Chain

By resorting to a model inspired to the standard Davydov and Holstein-Fröhlich models, in the present paper we study the motion of an electron along a chain of heavy particles modeling a sequence of nucleotides proper to a DNA fragment. Starting with a model Hamiltonian written in second quantizatio...
