Analysis of heart rhythm variability by linear and non-linear dynamics methods by Vuksanović Vesna, Gal Vera

“…The obtained results suggested that healthy aging was associated with significant alteration in heart rhythm dynamics reflected on a higher regularity and lower variability of heart rhythm time-series. Significant decrease in a high-frequency power with aging suggested that reduction in parasympathetic activity was the basic cause of these changes.…”

Arbitrary random variables and Wiman's inequality for analytic functions in the unit disc by A. O. Kuryliak, M. R. Kuryliak, O. M. Trusevych

“…We consider the class $\mathcal{A}(\varphi,\beta)$ of random analytic functions in the unit disk $\mathbb{C}=\{z\colon |z|<1\}$ of the form $f(z,\omega)=f(z,\omega_1,\omega_2)=\sum_{n=0}^{+\infty} R_n(\omega_1)\xi_n(\omega_2)a_nz^n,$ where $a_n\in\mathbb{C}\colon \lim\limits_{n\to+\infty}\sqrt[n]{|a_n|}=1,$ $\big(R_n(\omega)\big)$ is the Rademacher sequence, $\big(\xi_n(\omega)\big)$ is a sequence of complex-valued random variables (denote by $\Delta_{\varphi}$) such that there exists a constant $\beta>0$ and a function $\varphi(N,\beta)\colon\mathbb{N}\times\mathbb{R}_+\to[1;+\infty)$ non-decreasing by $N$ and $\beta$ for which   $\displaystyle  \Bigl(\mathbf{E}\Bigl(\max_{0\leq n\leq N}|\xi_n|^{\beta}\Bigl)\Bigl)^{1/\beta}\asymp\varphi(N,\beta),\ \ N\to+\infty,\ \ \alpha=\varlimsup_{N\to+\infty}\frac{\ln\varphi(N,\beta)}{\ln N}<+\infty,$   $\displaystyle  (\exists \gamma>0)(\exists n_0\in\mathbb{N})\colon \sup\{ \mathbf{E}|\xi_n|^{-\gamma}\colon\ n\geq n_0\}<+\infty.$   By $\mathcal{A}_1(\varphi,\beta)$ we denote the class of random analytic functions in $\mathbb{D}$ of the form $f(z,\omega)=\sum_{n=0}^{+\infty} \xi_n(\omega)a_nz^n,$ where a sequence $\big(\xi_n(\omega)\big)\in\Delta_\varphi$ and, in particular, may be not sub-gaussian and not independent. …”

The Laguerre transform of a convolution product of vector-valued functions. by A. O. Muzychuk

“…The Laguerre transform is applied to the convolution product of functions of a real argument (over the time axis) with values in Hilbert spaces. The main results have been obtained by establishing a relationship between the Laguerre and Laplace transforms over the time variable with respect to the elements of Lebesgue weight  spaces. …”

Exploring the Future Energy Value of Long-Duration Energy Storage by Anna H. Schleifer, Stuart M. Cohen, Wesley Cole, Paul Denholm, Nate Blair

“…This study leverages established National Renewable Energy Laboratory grid planning and operations tools, analysis, and data to execute a price-taker model of an energy storage system for several 8760 h price series representative of current and future contiguous United States grid infrastructures with varying shares of variable renewable energy (VRE). We find that the total value of energy storage typically increases with VRE shares, but any increase in the relative value of longer storage durations over time depends on the region and grid mix. …”
