''I read this lecture course in 1966–67 at the Department of Mechanics and Mathematics of the Moscow State University. Currently statistical physics is more than 90% heuristic science. This means that the facts established in this science are not proved, as a rule, in the mathematical meaning of thi

✦ Synopsis
This book introduces an approach to protein folding from the point of view of kinetic theory. There is an abundance of data on protein folding, but few proposals are available on the mechanism driving the process. Here, presented for the first time, are suggestions on possible research directions, as developed by the author in collaboration with C. C. Lin.

We present a fast method for finding optimal parameters for a low-resolution (threading) force field intended to distinguish correct from incorrect folds for a given protein sequence. In contrast to other methods, the parameterization uses information from >10(7) misfolded structures as well as a se
