Lacunarity on Compact Hypergroups.
A theorem of Sidon concerning absolutely convergent Fourier series is extended to compact groups.
We consider a general discrete model for heterogeneous semiflexible polymer chains. Both the thermal noise and the inhomogeneous character of the chain (the disorder) are modeled in terms of random rotations. We focus on the quenched regime, i.e., the analysis is performed for a given realization of the disorder. Semiflexible models differ substantially from random walks on short scales, but on large scales a brownian behavior emerges. By exploiting techniques from tensor analysis and non-commutative...
