Fluctuational Transitions and Critical Phenomena in a Periodically Driven Nonlinear Oscillator Subject to Weak Noise
'Fluctuation-induced transitions between coexisting periodic attractors in a periodically driven nonlinear oscillator have been investigated theoretically and by analogue electronic experiment. Calculations and measurements of the corresponding activation energies are in good agreement, and have enabled the position of the kinetic phase transition (KPT) line to be established over its full range.
متن کاملLocal exponents of nonlinear compression in periodically driven noisy oscillators.
Nonlinear compression of periodic signals is a key feature of the active amplifier in inner ear organs of all vertebrates. Different exponents alpha(0) in [-0.88,-0.5] of the sensitivity vs forcing amplitude |chi| approximately f(alpha(0)) have been observed. Here we calculate analytically the local exponent for a generic oscillator, the normal form of a Hopf bifurcation driven by noise and a p...
متن کاملPhase transitions in periodically driven macroscopic systems.
We study the large-time behavior of a class of periodically driven macroscopic systems. We find, for a certain range of the parameters of either the system or the driving fields, the time-averaged asymptotic behavior effectively is that of certain other equilibrium systems. We then illustrate with a few examples how the conventional knowledge of the equilibrium systems can be made use of in cho...
متن کاملSynchronization of driven nonlinear oscillators
Mathematical models of nonlinear oscillators are used to describe a wide variety of physical and biological phenomena that exhibit self-sustained oscillatory behavior. When these oscillators are strongly driven by forces that are periodic in time, they often exhibit a remarkable ‘‘mode-locking’’ that synchronizes the nonlinear oscillations to the driving force. The purpose of this paper is to d...
متن کاملDynamical phase transitions in periodically driven model neurons.
Transitions between dynamical states in integrate-and-fire neuron models with periodic stimuli result from tangent or discontinuous bifurcations of a return map. We study their characteristic scaling laws and show that discontinuous bifurcations exhibit a kind of phase transition intermediate between continuous and first order. In the model-independent spirit of our analysis we show that a six-...
