We perturb with an additive Gaussian white noise the Hamiltonian system associated to a cubic anharmonic oscillator. The stochastic system is assumed to start from initial conditions that guarantee the existence of a periodic solution for…
A limit cycle is a self-sustained periodic motion appearing in autonomous ordinary differential equations. As the period of the limit cycle is a-priori unknown, it is challenging to find them as stationary states of a rotating ansatz.…
