New analytical expressions and numerical results for the quality factor and directivity as well as computationally convenient expressions for the input admittance of a symmetrical biconical antenna of arbitrary length $L$ and cone angle $\theta_0$ are presented. The quality factor for a wide-angle biconical antenna is shown to very closely approach the Chu's limit of $Q = (kL)^{-1}\{1+(kL)^{-2}\}$. Numerical calculations based on the analytical formula for antenna admittance confirm the conjecture that Foster's reactance theorem remains invalid even for perfectly conducting antennas. Furthermore, the variation of directivity of a wide-angle biconical antenna is a slowly varying function of its electrical length and is shown to depart significantly from that of a thin cylindrical dipole. <br>

A new regression-based approach for the estimation of the tail index of heavy-tailed distributions with several important properties is introduced. First, it provides a bias reduction when compared to available regression-based methods; second, it is resilient to the choice of the tail length used for the estimation of the tail index; third, when the effect of the slowly varying function at infinity of the Pareto distribution vanishes slowly, it continues to perform satisfactorily; and fourth, it performs well under dependence of unknown form. An approach to compute the asymptotic variance under time dependence and conditional heteroskcedasticity is also provided.

We prove the one-dimensional almost sure invariance principle with essentially optimal rates for slowly (polynomially) mixing deterministic dynamical systems, such as Pomeau–Manneville intermittent maps, with Hölder continuous observables. Our rates have form $o(n^{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE}}L(n))$, where $L(n)$ is a slowly varying function and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE}$ is determined by the speed of mixing. We strongly improve previous results where the best available rates did not exceed $O(n^{1/4})$. To break the $O(n^{1/4})$ barrier, we represent the dynamics as a Young-tower-like Markov chain and adapt the methods of Berkes–Liu–Wu and Cuny–Dedecker–Merlevède on the Komlós–Major–Tusnády approximation for dependent processes.

Path planning of Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) is of considerable significance for the underwater navigation, the objective of the path planning is to find an optimal collision-free and the shortest trajectory from the start to the destination. In this paper, a new improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) was proposed to process the global path planning in a static underwater environment for UUV. Firstly, the path planning principle for UUV was established, in which three cost functions, path length, exclusion potential field between the UUV and obstacle, and attraction potential field between UUV and destination, were considered and developed as an optimization objective. Then, on the basis of analysis traditional particle swarm optimization (PSO), the time-varying acceleration coefficients and slowly varying function were employed to improve performance of PSO, time-varying acceleration coefficients was utilized to balance the local optimum and global optimum, and slowly varying function was introduced into the updating formula of PSO to expand search space and maintain particle diversity. Finally, numerical simulations verify that, the proposed approach can fulfill path planning problems for UUN successfully.

Abstract Khintchine's (necessary and sufficient) slowly varying function condition for the weak law of large numbers (WLLN) for the sum of n nonnegative, independent and identically distributed random variables is used as an overarching (sufficient) condition for the case that the number of summands is more generally [cn],cn→∞. Either the norming sequence {an},an→∞, or the number of summands sequence {cn}, can be chosen arbitrarily. This theorem generalizes results from a motivating branching process setting in which Khintchine's sufficient condition is automatically satisfied. A second theorem shows that Khintchine's condition is necessary for the generalized WLLN when it holds with cn→∞ and an→∞. Theorem 3, which is known, gives a necessary and sufficient condition for Khintchine's WLLN to hold with cn=n and an a specific function of n; it is extended to general cn subject to a growth restriction in Theorem 4. Section 6 returns to the branching process setting.

The quaslinear operators of weak type $$$(\phi_0, \psi_0, \phi_1, \psi_1)$$$, analogs of the Calderon, Bennett operators in the case of concave and convex functions $$$\phi_0(t)$$$, $$$\psi_0(t)$$$, $$$\phi_1(t)$$$, $$$\psi_1(t)$$$ are considered. The theorems of interpolation of these operators from the Lorentz space $$$\Lambda_{\psi, b}(\mathbb{R}^n)$$$ into the space $$$\Lambda_{\psi, a}(\mathbb{R}^n)$$$ in cases when $$$0 < b \leqslant a \leqslant 1$$$ and relation of function $$$\phi^{\frac{1}{b}}(t)$$$ to one of functions $$$\phi_1(t)$$$, $$$\phi_2(t)$$$ is slowly varying function are proved.

Abstract We extend Goldie's implicit renewal theorem to the arithmetic case, which allows us to determine the tail behavior of the solution of various random fixed point equations. It turns out that the arithmetic and nonarithmetic cases are very different. Under appropriate conditions we obtain that the tail of the solution X of the fixed point equations X =DAX + B and X =DAX ∨ B is ℓ(x) q(x) x-κ, where q is a logarithmically periodic function q(x eh) = q(x), x > 0, with h being the span of the arithmetic distribution of log A, and ℓ is a slowly varying function. In particular, the tail is not necessarily regularly varying. We use the renewal theoretic approach developed by Grincevičius (1975) and Goldie (1991).

This paper is divided into two parts. The first deals with some limit theorems to certain extensions of fractional Brownian motion like: bifractional Brownian motion, subfractional Brownian motion and weighted fractional Brownian motion. In the second part we give the similar results of their continuous additive functionals; more precisely, local time and its fractional derivatives involving slowly varying function.

Electron properties of semiconducting zigzag carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be described by two uncoupled Dirac equations of dimension (1+1) for the particle with nonzero mass. The solutions of these equations are two charge-neutral Majorana fields. An analogous equation is obtained for the carbon chains. We use the approach, wherein wavefunction of charged particle is represented as the production of a rapidly oscillating exponent and the slowly varying function amplitude depending on the longitudinal coordinate.
