Polaron dynamics in the alpha helix : models of electron transport in hydrogen-bonded polypeptides
In this thesis, I present two mathematical models which are capable of explaining the phenomenon of directed electron transport in α-helical regions of protein macromolecules. The models are built upon the framework of polaron theory, which originated in condensed matter physics, and which I argue i...
