Abstract
We study the relationship between intrachain ordering and segregation tendency of two polymers confined in a cylindrical space. We find the chains segregate spontaneously even outside de Gennes’ linear-ordering scaling regime, in which each chain is a linear array of blobs. When the chains are weakly compressed against each other, linear ordering is well preserved and the chains remain segregated. On the other hand, for moderate compression, new chain-ordering units emerge at intermediate length scales, within which blobs are randomly packed; yet these units (termed “superblobs”) are linearly ordered, and the chains still segregate in the confined space. As the chains continue to be compressed, the linear regime disappears, but the chains can resist mixing effectively, more so in a more asymmetric space. We conclude that the linearly ordered E. coli chromosome is in the segregation regime.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
