Abstract
The author studies the conformational properties of a polymer chain in the presence of both excluded volume interactions and interactions with a penetrable surface. The coexistence of two different kinds of interaction brings new features to the behaviour of the chain, beyond those coming from the two interactions acting independently. He follows an analysis which can find application to the study of problems with more than one interaction parameter.Keywords
