TL;DR: This study modified the L-type calcium (Ca) current and Ca(i) cycling formulations based on new experimental patch-clamp data obtained in isolated rabbit ventricular myocytes, and developed a minimal seven-state Markovian model of I(Ca,L) that reproduced Ca- and voltage-dependent kinetics.

TL;DR: Approximations to the largest eigenvalue of adjacency matrices of a network are developed and the relationships between these approximations are discussed.
Abstract: The largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a network plays an important role in several network processes (e.g., synchronization of oscillators, percolation on directed networks, and linear stability of equilibria of network coupled systems). In this paper we develop approximations to the largest eigenvalue of adjacency matrices and discuss the relationships between these approximations. Numerical experiments on simulated networks are used to test our results.
