Abstract

We model the secondary structure of an RNA molecule by means of a maximal non-crossing matching on a random word in a finite alphabet, where ties are only allowed between certain pairs of letters. We prove that the mean fraction of unmatched symbols does not vanish as the length of the word tends to infinity.
