Supercoiled DNA often adopts tree-like double-folded branching configurations. In this context, We proposed a framework to generate expected bacterial chromosome structures at multiple scales.Stage I: A lattice model for the dynamics of randomly branching double-folded ring polymers.First, We studied an elastic lattice model for tightly double-folded ring polymers, which allows for the spontaneous creation and deletion of side branches coupled to a diffusive mass transport, which is local both in space and on the connectivity graph of the tree. Monte Carlo simulations were performed and studied systems belonging to three different universality classes: ideal double-folded rings without excluded volume interactions, self-avoiding double-fold...
