Can Polymer Helicity Affect Topological Chirality of Polymer Knots?

[Image: see text] We investigate the effect of helicity in isolated polymers on the topological chirality of their knots with computer simulations. Polymers are described by generic worm-like chains (WLC), where helical conformations are promoted by chiral coupling between segments that are neighbor...
