Path coupling without contraction
Path coupling is a useful technique for simplifying the analysis of a coupling of a Markov chain. Rather than defining and analysing the coupling on every pair in Ω ×Ω , where Ω is the state space of the Markov chain, analysis is done on a smaller set S ⊆Ω ×Ω . If the coefficient of contraction β is strictly less than one, no further analysis is needed in order to show rapid mixing. However, if...
متن کاملPath Coupling and Aggregate Path Coupling
In this survey paper, we describe and characterize an extension to the classical path coupling method applied to statistical mechanical models, referred to as aggregate path coupling. In conjunction with large deviations estimates, we use this aggregate path coupling method to prove rapid mixing of Glauber dynamics for a large class of statistical mechanical models, including models that exhibi...
متن کاملMyocardial contraction-relaxation coupling.
Since the pioneering work of Henry Pickering Bowditch in the late 1800s to early 1900s, cardiac muscle contraction has remained an intensely studied topic for several reasons. The heart is located centrally in our body, and its pumping motion demands the attention of the observer. The contraction of the heart encompasses a complex interplay of mechanical, chemical, and electrical properties, an...

متن کاملExcitation-Contraction Coupling
Previous studies have demonstrated that the ability of (.adrenergic receptor (.BAR) stimulation to increase cardiac contractility declines with aging. In the present study, the control mechanisms of excitation-contraction (EC) coupling, including calcium current (Ice), cytosolic Ca2" (Ca?') transient and contraction in response to BAR stimulation were investigated in ventricular myocytes isolat...
