Optimal Concentration Inequalities for Dynamical Systems [PDF]
Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2012 For dynamical systems modeled by a Young tower with exponential tails, we prove an exponential concentration inequality for all separately Lipschitz observables of n variables. When tails are polynomial, we prove polynomial concentration inequalities. Those inequalities are optimal. We give some applications of such inequalities to specific systems and

International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.This work introduces an adaptive human pilot model that captures pilot time‐delay effects in adaptive control systems. The model enables the prediction of pilot–controller interactions, facilitating safer integration and improved design of adaptive controllers for piloted applications.

International Journal for Equity in Health, 2018 Background Despite various policy interventions that have targeted reductions in socio-economic inequalities in health and health care in post-Apartheid South Africa, evidence suggests that not much has really changed. In particular, health inequalities,

Coupling, concentration inequalities, and stochastic dynamics [PDF]
Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2008 In the context of interacting particle systems, we study the influence of the action of the semigroup on the concentration property of Lipschitz functions. As an application, this gives a new approach to estimate the relaxation speed to equilibrium of interacting particle systems.

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Cuttlebone‐inspired metamaterials exploit a septum‐wall architecture to achieve excellent mechanical and functional properties. This review classifies existing designs into direct biomimetic, honeycomb‐type, and strut‐type architectures, summarizes governing design principles, and presents a decoupled design framework for interpreting multiphysical ...

Concentration Inequalities for Bounded Functionals via Log-Sobolev-Type Inequalities [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Probability, 2020 AbstractIn this paper, we prove multilevel concentration inequalities for bounded functionals$$f = f(X_1, \ldots , X_n)$$f=f(X1,…,Xn)of random variables$$X_1, \ldots , X_n$$X1,…,Xnthat are either independent or satisfy certain logarithmic Sobolev inequalities.

Clean Up Behind You ‐ Novel Patterning Approach for Solid Immersion Lenses
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A focused ion beam (FIB) milling strategy enables rapid fabrication of solid immersion lenses (SILs) with smooth, debris‐free surfaces eliminating the need for post‐processing. The optimized pattern improves efficiency and surface quality. SILs containing NV centers are also investigated, confirming the technique's suitability for quantum and photonic ...
