Narrow Results

We consider a quantum system described by a concrete C*-algebra acting on a Hilbert space ℋ with a vector state ω induced by a cyclic vector Ω and a unitary evolution U_t such that U_tΩ = Ω, ∀t ∈ ℝ. It is proved that this vector state is a ground state if and only if it is non-faithful and completely passive. This version of a result of Pusz and Woronowicz is reviewed, emphasizing other related aspects: passivity from the point of view of moving observers and stability with respect to local perturbations of the dynamics.

The passivity conditions for stochastic neural networks with time-varying delays and random abrupt changes are considered in this paper. Sufficient conditions on passivity of stochastic neural networks with time-varying delays and random abrupt changes are developed in the linear matrix inequality (LMI) setting. The results obtained in this paper improve and extend some of the previous results.

Due to the complexity of interaction among constituents inside the whole system, it is difficult to establish accurate mathematics models to describe and analyze the complex systems exactly. There are few attempts concerning on the moving process of endocrine disruptor in human bodies, which have been the polluted material worldwide related to the reproduction, existence and development of human being. Focusing on such two challenging issues, a multi-compartment model of endocrine disruptor Benzene moving in the human body complex system is established in this paper. Furthermore, passivity of this model is described systematically. A feedback controller for this descriptor biological complex system is used under the station of strict passivity, and an example of the controller is given for a particular instantiation of the model.
