Abstract :
This paper deals with a novel graph model to represent tile sets for DNA self-assembly in forward growth under aTAM. This model is based on a tile attachment and captures the features of the so-called corner attachment by considering the binding of the bonds between a tile and the current error-free aggregate. An analysis of this process and its implications on tile sets (such as composition and decomposition) are pursued with respect to the properties of the graph model.
