Bistability generated via a pure noise-induced phase transition is reexamined from the view of bifurcations in macroscopic cumulant dynamics. It allows an analytical study of the phase diagram in more general cases than previous methods. In…
The effects of noise on the dynamics of nonlinear systems is known to lead to many counter-intuitive behaviors. Using simple planar limit cycle oscillators, we show that the addition of moderate noise leads to qualitatively different…

Biological systems are notoriously noisy. Noise, therefore, also plays an important role in many models of neural impulse generation. Noise is not only introduced for more realistic simulations but also to account for cooperative effects…
Oscillations in nonequilibrium noisy systems are important physical phenomena. These oscillations can happen in autonomous biochemical oscillators such as circadian clocks. They can also manifest as subharmonic oscillations in periodically…
The presence of noise in non linear dynamical systems can play a constructive role, increasing the degree of order and coherence or evoking improvements in the performance of the system. An example of this positive influence in a biological…
We extend the mechanism for noise-induced phase transitions proposed by Ibanes et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 020601-1 (2001)] to pattern formation phenomena. In contrast with known mechanisms for pure noise-induced pattern formation, this…

The phase-space of a simple synchronization model is thoroughly investigated. The model considers two-mode stochastic oscillators, coupled through a pulse-like interaction controlled by simple optimization rules. A complex phase space is…
We address the exploitation of an optical parametric oscillator (OPO) in the task of mitigating, at least partially, phase noise produced by phase diffusion. In particular, we analyze two scenarios where phase diffusion is typically…
We demonstrate how coupling nonlinear dynamical systems can reduce the effects of noise. For simplicity we investigate noisy coupled map lattices. Noise from different lattice nodes can diffuse across the lattice and lower the noise level…
We study noise induced switching in systems far from equilibrium by using an underdamped micromechanical torsional oscillator driven into the nonlinear regime. Within a certain range of driving frequencies, the oscillator possesses two…
