Abstract

The role of the Onsager reaction term (ORT) is not yet well understood in frustrated coupled oscillator systems, since the Thouless-Anderson-Palmer (TAP) and replica methods cannot be directly applied to these non-equilibrium systems. In this paper, we consider two oscillator associative memory models, one with symmetric and one with asymmetric dilution of coupling. These two systems are ideal for evaluating the effect of the ORT, because, with the exception of the ORT, they have the same order parameter equations. We found that the two systems have identical macroscopic properties, except for the acceleration effect caused by the ORT. This acceleration effect does not exist in any equilibrium system.
