Locality of interactions for planar memristive circuits
Abstract
Memristors are nonlinear passive circuit elements which can be thought as time varying resistances. When connected in a complex circuit these exhibit very exotic behavior, typical of disordered systems, such as a universal slow relaxation for intricated circuit topologies, and strong dependence on the initial conditions. Being memristive components part of a circuit, non-local effects due to the Kirchhoff constraints are present. In the formalism developed recently for a fairly general class of memristive circuits the constraints are contained in a projection operator. We provide exact results regarding the fall-off of the elements with the Hamming distance on the circuit, thus elucidating an insofar elusive and open question regarding the non-local effects in crossbar arrays, currently being considered for on-chip machine learning.
