Abstract

We study the universal characteristics of the shape of a polymer chain in an environment
with correlated structural obstacles, applying the field-theoretical renormalization
group approach. Our results qualitatively indicate an increase of the
asymmetry of the polymer shape in crowded environment comparing with the pure
solution case.
