Bursts in oscillatory systems with broken D4 symmetry
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new mechanism responsible for generating regular and irregular bursts of large dynamic range near onset of an oscillatory instability is identified. The bursts are present in systems with nearly square symmetry and are the result of heteroclinic cycles involving infinite amplitude states created when the square symmetry is broken. All possible cycles of this type are identified and the resulting bursts described. Global connections involving finite amplitude states are also present. The intricate sequence of bifurcations that result is described in several cases. ©2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. PACS: 47.20.Ky; 05.45.+b; 47.20.−k

Wrinkled tori and bursts due to resonant temporal forcing
The effect of resonant temporal forcing on a system undergoing a Hopf bifurcation with D4 (square) symmetry is studied. The forcing breaks the continuous normal form symmetry of the governing amplitude equations, but the D4 symmetry is preserved. For this system, it is shown that bursts with very large dynamic range may occur. The bursts are associated with visits near solutions “at infinity”, ...
متن کاملEffect of Noise on Excursions To and Back From Infinity
The effect of additive white noise on a model for bursting behavior in large aspectratio binary fluid convection is considered. Such bursts are present in systems with nearly square symmetry and are the result of heteroclinic cycles involving infinite amplitude states created when the square symmetry is broken. A combination of numerical results and analytical arguments show how even a very sma...
متن کاملNon critical holographic models of the thermal phases of QCD
We analyze the thermal phases of a non critical holographic model of QCD. The model is based on a six dimensional background of Nc non extremal D4 branes wrapping a spacial circle of radius R and the compactified Euclidean time direction of radius β = 1/T . We place in this background stacks of Nf D4 and anti-D4 flavor probe branes with a separation distance L at large radial direction. The ana...
متن کاملOscillatory bifurcation with broken translation symmetry.
The effect of distant end walls on the bifurcation to traveling waves is considered. Previous approaches have treated the problem by assuming that.it is a weak perturbation of the translation invariant problem. When the problem is formulated instead in a finite box of length L and the limit L-+ 00 is taken, one obtains amplitude equations that differ from the usual Ginzburg-Landau description b...
متن کاملForced Symmetry Breaking as a Mechanism for Bursting
A robust mechanism generating regular or irregular bursts of large dynamic range near threshold is described. The mechanism arises in the interaction between oscillatory modes of odd and even parity in systems of large but finite aspect ratio, and provides an explanation for the bursting behavior observed in binary fluid convection by Sullivan and Ahlers [Phys. Rev. A 38, 3143 (1988)]. [S0031-9...
