Loops in Canonical RNA Pseudoknot Structures
Loops in Canonical RNA Pseudoknot Structures
In this article, we compute the limit distributions of the numbers of hairpin-loops, interior-loops and bulges in k-noncrossing RNA structures. The latter are coarse-grained RNA structures allowing for cross-serial interactions, subject to the constraint that there are at most k - 1 mutually crossing arcs in the diagram representation of …
