Profiling the sleep architecture of ageing adults using a seven‐state continuous‐time Markov model
Summary Sleep is a complex biological process regulated by networks of neurons and environmental factors. As one falls asleep, neurotransmitters from sleep–wake regulating neurones work in synergy to control the switching of different sleep states throughout the night. As sleep disorders or underlying neuropathology can manifest as irregular switching,

ABSTRACT Conventional single intensity measure (IM) fragility approaches with simplified component dependency assumptions overlook the progressive damage accumulation and evolving inter‐component correlations that govern system behavior under mainshock‐aftershock (MSAS) loading.

ABSTRACT This study develops a novel multivariate stochastic framework for assessing systemic risks, such as climate and nature‐related shocks, within production or financial networks. By embedding a linear stochastic fluid network, interpretable as a generalized vector Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process, into the production network of interdependent ...

Non-identifiability of the two state Markovian Arrival process [PDF]
In this paper we consider the problem of identifiability of the two-state Markovian Arrival process (MAP2). In particular, we show that the MAP2 is not identifiable and conditions are given under which two different sets of parameters, induce identical ...

Dam Management in the Era of Climate Change
ABSTRACT Climate change has a dramatic impact, particularly by concentrating rainfall into a few short periods, interspersed with long dry spells. In this context, the role of dams is crucial. We consider the optimal control of a dam, where the water level must neither exceed a designated safety threshold nor fall below a minimum level to ensure ...

On identifiability of MAP processes [PDF]
Two types of transitions can be found in the Markovian Arrival process or MAP: with and without arrivals. In transient transitions the chain jumps from one state to another with no arrival; in effective transitions, a single arrival occurs.

A Stochastic Approach for Recovery Times of Coastal Dune Vegetation
Abstract The resilience of coastal dunes to environmental stress largely depends on vegetation recovery, which promotes sediment trapping and sand stabilization. However, post‐disturbance recovery dynamics remain difficult to quantify due to the complex interplay between biotic and abiotic processes.

ABSTRACT We develop a unified mathematical framework extending classical moment theory from discrete integer orders to a continuous spectrum of real orders f>0$$ f>0 $$, providing a systematic statistical characterization of complex systems exhibiting power‐law behavior.

Electron transport is studied between carbon atoms in the open graphene, while assuming bands to be collective states of electrons in the presence of lattice atoms. To describe dissipative effects, non‐Hermitian extension of the band Hamiltonian is proposed, which models spontaneous emission or injection.

Finite‐Time Protocols Stabilize Charging in Noisy Ising Quantum Batteries
A transverse‐field quantum Ising chain is charged as a quantum battery using finite‐time ramps, which suppress energy oscillations and stabilize charging compared to sudden quenches. When time‐correlated noise is introduced, the outcome depends entirely on the protocol: noise can either boost stored energy or improve efficiency, never both ...
