Uncoupling-Coupling Techniques for Metastable Dynamical Systems

چکیده
We shortly review the uncoupling-coupling method, a Markov chain Monte Carlo based approach to compute statistical properties of systems like medium-sized biomolecules. This technique has recently been proposed for the efficient computation of biomolecular conformations. One crucial step of UC is the decomposition of reversible nearly uncoupled Markov chains into rapidly mixing subchains. We show how the underlying scheme of uncoupling-coupling can also be applied to stochastic differential equations where it can be translated into a domain decomposition technique for partial differential equations.

Transient Uncoupling Induces Synchronization.
Finding conditions that support synchronization is a fertile and active area of research with applications across multiple disciplines. Here we present and analyze a scheme for synchronizing chaotic dynamical systems by transiently uncoupling them. Specifically, systems coupled only in a fraction of their state space may synchronize even if fully coupled they do not. While for many standard sys...
متن کاملPointwise Estimates and Exponential Laws in Metastable Systems via Coupling Methods
We show how coupling techniques can be used in some metastable systems to prove that mean metastable exit times are almost constant as functions of the starting microscopic configuration within a “metastable set”. In the example of the Random Field Curie Weiss model, we show that these ideas can also be used to prove asymptotic exponentiality of normalized metastable escape times.
متن کاملDetermination of Stability Domains for Nonlinear Dynamical Systems Using the Weighted Residuals Method
Finding a suitable estimation of stability domain around stable equilibrium points is an important issue in the study of nonlinear dynamical systems. This paper intends to apply a set of analytical-numerical methods to estimate the region of attraction for autonomous nonlinear systems. In mechanical and structural engineering, autonomous systems could be found in large deformation problems or c...
متن کاملSynchronization analysis of complex dynamical networks with hybrid coupling with application to Chua’s circuit
Complex dynamic networks have been considered by researchers for their applications in modeling and analyzing many engineering issues. These networks are composed of interconnected nodes and exhibit complex behaviors that are resulted from interactions between these nodes. Synchronization, which is the concept of coordinated behavior between nodes, is the most interested behavior in these netwo...
