Wrinkling transition in polymerized membranes
Upon cooling partially polymerized membranes may undergo a spontaneous transition to a wrinkled rigid structure. This transition is reversible: the vesicles unwrinkle upon heating. A model is presented suggesting that this transition could be the membrane equivalent of a glass transition.
