Comment on `Glassy Transition in a Disordered Model for the RNA Secondary Structure' | Alexander K. Hartmann
; | Date: |
9 Aug 1999 | Journal: | Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 1382 (2001) | Subject: | Disordered Systems and Neural Networks; Soft Condensed Matter | cond-mat.dis-nn cond-mat.soft q-bio | Affiliation: | Univ. Goettingen, Germany | Abstract: | In cond-mat/9907125 the low-temperature behavior of a model for RNA secondary structure was studied. It is claimed that the model exhibits a breaking of the replica symmetry, since the width of the distribution P(q) of overlaps may converge to a finite value at T=0. The authors used an exact enumeration method to obtain all ground states for a given RNA sequence. Because of the exponential growing degeneracy, only sequences up to length L=256 could be studied. Here it is shown that, in contrast to the previous results, by going to much larger sizes as L=2000 the variance coverges towards zero, i.e. P(q) is a delta-function in the thermodynamic limit. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/9908132 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
