Perturbation theory is an important tool in the analysis of oscillators and their response to external stimuli. It is predicated on the assumption that the perturbations in question are "sufficiently weak", an assumption that is not always…
The Phase Response Curve (PRC) is a tool used in neuroscience that measures the phase shift experienced by an oscillator due to a perturbation applied at different phases of the limit cycle. In this paper we present a new approach to PRCs…
We demonstrate that the phase response curve (PRC) can be reconstructed using a weighted spike-triggered average of an injected fluctuating input. The key idea is to choose the weight to be proportional to the magnitude of the fluctuation…
Synchronization of two or more self-sustained oscillators is a well-known and studied phenomenon, appearing both in natural and designed systems. In some cases, the synchronized state is undesired, and the aim is to destroy synchrony by…
We prove that a group of injection-locked oscillators, each modelled using a nonlinear phase macromodel, responds as a single oscillator to small external perturbations. More precisely, we show that any group of injection-locked oscillators…
