Figure 2.

Loop-size distribution for M = 5 pairs of non-disassociating loop-extruding machines on a lattice of size L = 50. The probability distribution broadens as the bias (Inline graphic) increases. Main figure shows results for Inline graphic 1.05 (dot-dashed line), 1.5 (dashed line) and 4.0 (solid line). Inset: comparison of steady-state loop-size distributions for exact statistical theory (solid black line) and kinetic simulation Inline graphic (gray bars); difference between them is negligibly small. The simulation was run Inline graphic times, each for a time of Inline graphic Standard errors for the histogram bars have a maximum value of Inline graphic and are invisible on this plot.
