The conformation of polymer chains in a poor solvent and confined in a slit of width D is studied. A variational theory is used to calculate the mean square end-to-end distance. For the asymptotic values of D, the results coincide with the prediction of the scaling theory. For small values of D, the

## Abstract The self‐consistent approach to free‐energy optimization is applied to regular star polymers in bad solvents (__T__ < Θ); the Gaussian approximation and the Zimm‐Kilb description of Fourier modes are both warranted under these conditions leading to chain collapse. As currently done in t
