Attainability for Markov and Semi-Markov Chains

open access: yesMathematics
When studying Markov chain models and semi-Markov chain models, it is useful to know which state vectors n, where each component ni represents the number of entities in the state Si, can be maintained or attained. This question leads to the definitions of maintainability and attainability for (time-homogeneous) Markov chain models.

Population pharmacokinetic modelling of prednisolone in systemic lupus erythematosus patients: Analysis of exposure and disease activity

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Prednisone is a widely used glucocorticoid in the treatment of lupus, although its dosing is often determined empirically. Prednisolone, the active metabolite of prednisone, is found in its free form in the serum. The goal of this study was to develop a population pharmacokinetic model in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE ...

Entropy Rate for Hidden Markov Chains with rare transitions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
We consider Hidden Markov Chains obtained by passing a Markov Chain with rare transitions through a noisy memoryless channel. We obtain asymptotic estimates for the entropy of the resulting Hidden Markov Chain as the transition rate is reduced to zero.

Characterization of the Cubamyces Menziesii Terpenome

open access: yesChemBioChem, EarlyView.
The genome of Cubamyces menziesii reveals 18 putative sesquiterpene cyclase genes. These genes are cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli, yielding 10 active enzymes. Using farnesyl diphosphate as substrate, the enzymes are analyzed, and the products characterized after bioconversion, uncovering diverse sesquiterpene structures. This study highlights

First‐order Sobolev spaces, self‐similar energies and energy measures on the Sierpiński carpet

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
Abstract For any p∈(1,∞)$p \in (1,\infty)$, we construct p$p$‐energies and the corresponding p$p$‐energy measures on the Sierpiński carpet. A salient feature of our Sobolev space is the self‐similarity of energy. An important motivation for the construction of self‐similar energy and energy measures is to determine whether or not the Ahlfors regular ...

Error Bounds for Augmented Truncations of Discrete-Time Block-Monotone Markov Chains under Geometric Drift Conditions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
This paper studies the augmented truncation of discrete-time block-monotone Markov chains under geometric drift conditions. We first present a bound for the total variation distance between the stationary distributions of an original Markov chain and its augmented truncation.

Hidden hybrid Markov/semi-Markov chains [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Statistics & Data Analysis, 2005
Models that combine Markovian states with implicit geometric state occupancy distributions and semi-Markovian states with explicit state occupancy distributions, are investigated. This type of model retains the flexibility of hidden semi-Markov chains for the modeling of short or medium size homogeneous zones along sequences but also enables the ...

The porous medium equation: Large deviations and gradient flow with degenerate and unbounded diffusion

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
Abstract The problem of deriving a gradient flow structure for the porous medium equation which is thermodynamic, in that it arises from the large deviations of some microscopic particle system is studied. To this end, a rescaled zero‐range process with jump rate g(k)=kα,α>1$g(k)=k^\alpha, \alpha >1$ is considered, and its hydrodynamic limit and ...
