Abstract
This chapter1 and the next deal explicitly with simple multi-stranded polymers. Hitherto some multi-stranded polymers have been included only as “effectively” single stranded. We use simple, illustrative models rather than realistic ones (e.g., a microtubule); even some of these simple models require Monte Carlo calculations.
