We introduce a quantum spin van der Pol (vdP) oscillator as a prototypical model of quantum spinbased limit-cycle oscillators, which coincides with the quantum optical vdP oscillator in the high-spin limit. The system is described as a…
Cardiac and respiratory rhythms are known to exhibit a modest degree of phase synchronization, which is affected by age, diseases, and other factors. We study the fine temporal structure of this synchrony in healthy young, healthy elderly,…
Synchronization is central to many complex systems in engineering physics (e.g., the power-grid, Josephson junction circuits, and electro-chemical oscillators) and biology (e.g., neuronal, circadian, and cardiac rhythms). Despite these…
Synchronisation and stability under periodic oscillatory driving are well-understood, but little is known about the effects of aperiodic driving, despite its abundance in nature. Here, we consider oscillators subject to driving with slowly…
A paradigm for quantum synchronization is the quantum analog of the Stuart--Landau oscillator, which corresponds to a van der Pol oscillator in the limit of weak (i.e. vanishingly small) nonlinearity. Due to this limitation, the quantum…
Synchronization in quantum systems has been recently studied through persistent oscillations of local observables, which stem from undamped modes of the dissipative dynamics. However, the existence of such modes requires fine-tuning the…
