Stochastic resonance and stochastic synchronization

Autors: 
Anishchenko Vadim Semenovich, Saratov State University
Abstract: 

The fundamental phenomenon of synchronization occurs in non-lirear self—sustained oscillators subjecled to а periodic force or coupled with each other. This phenomenon manifests itself in locking or suppressing of the natural frequency of the oscillator by periodic force. In this paper we discuss surprising synchronization like phenomena in stochastic bistable systems which have no natural frequency at all. A stochastic bistable system possesses а noise—controlled mean switching frequeicy between metastable states being ап analogy of the natural frequency. The stochastic synchronization reveals locking of the mean switching frequency by external pericdic force. The same phenomenon can be observed in coupled stochastic bistable systemis.
