    Notes: Abstract The short-distance behavior of the measure of a sphere and of the correlation integral is determined, in the case of disconnected repellers, by scaling laws whose corrections are oscillating functions, periodic or aperiodic, depending on exact or approximate self-similarity of the measure. The Mellin transforms prove to be the correct analytic tool in order to investigate these corrections to scaling. It has been previously proved that they are meromorphic for linear Cantor sets and that the leading pole gives the correlation dimension in agreement with the results of the thermodynamic formalism. Here we show that the residues of these poles can also be computed to any desired accuracy with simple algorithms and that the knowledge of the singularity spectrum of the Mellin transforms provides the Fourier spectrum of the scaling correction for the self-similar measure and that it reproduces the damped oscillations in the generic case. The method applies to the nonlinear repellers such as the disconnected Julia sets by using an approximation theorem.

    Notes: Abstract We consider a discrete ribbon model for double-stranded polymers where the ribbon is constrained to lie in a three-dimensional lattice. The ribbon can be open or closed, and closed ribbons can be orientable or nonorientable. We prove some results about the asymptotic behavior of the numbers of ribbons withn plaquettes, and a theorem about the frequency of occurrence of certain patterns in these ribbons. We use this to derive results about the frequency of knots in closed ribbons, the linking of the boundary curves of orientable closed ribbons, and the twist and writhe of ribbons. We show that the centerline and boundary of a closed ribbon are both almost surely knotted in the infinite-n limit. For an orientable ribbon, the expectation of the absolute value of the linking number of the two boundary curves increases at least as fast as √n, and similar results hold for the twist and writhe.
