Abstract
Using Monte Carlo simulations, the cascade transition of a single polyelectrolyte chain having permuted charge distribution is investigated. The polyelectrolyte chain is simulated at various solvent regimes. The effect of the electrostatic interaction strength is studied. The structures are analyzed with respect to the scaling laws. The effect of permuted charge distribution is investigated in comparison to the other charge distribution in the literature. © 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
