Molecular self-assembly is a promising approach to bottom-up fabrication of complex structures. A major impediment to the practical use of self-assembly to create complex structure...
We show that the Tile Assembly Model exhibits a strong notion of universality where the goal is to give a single tile assembly system that simulates the behavior of any other tile...

We consider the tile self-assembly model and how tile complexity can be eliminated by permitting the temperature of the self-assembly system to be adjusted throughout the assembly...
Finding an efficient optimal partial tiling algorithm is still an open problem. We have worked on a special case, the tiling of Manhattan polyominoes with dominoes, for which we gi...
We present a theoretical model for self-assembling tiles with flexible branches motivated by DNA branched junction molecules. We encode an instance of a “problem” as a pot of ...
