The noise driven motion in a bistable potential acts as the archetypal model of various physical phenomena. Here, we contrast the overdamped dynamics with the full (underdamped) dynamics. For the overdamped particle driven by a…
Residence times of a particle in both the wells of a double-well system, under the action of zero-mean Gaussian white noise and zero-averaged but temporally asymmetric periodic forcings, are recorded in a numerical simulation. The…
Path integral techniques are used to understand the behaviour of a particle moving in a bistable potential well and acted upon by quasi-monochromatic external noise. In the limit of small diffusion coefficient, a steepest descent evaluation…
We consider the dynamics of a periodic chain of N coupled overdamped particles under the influence of noise. Each particle is subjected to a bistable local potential, to a linear coupling with its nearest neighbours, and to an independent…
We introduce a new method, allowing to describe slowly time-dependent Langevin equations through the behaviour of individual paths. This approach yields considerably more information than the computation of the probability density. The main…
We study the residence time distributions and explore the possibility of observing stochastic resonance and synchonization of passages in a two-well system driven by a periodic forcing of amplitude larger than a marginal value beyond which…
The model of a double-well oscillator with nonlinear dissipation is studied. The self-sustained oscillations regime and the excitable one are described. The first regime consists in the coexistence of two stable limit cycles in the phase…
Humans face the task of balancing dynamic systems near an unstable equilibrium repeatedly throughout their lives. Much research has been aimed at understanding the mechanisms of intermittent control in the context of human balance control.…
For a model 1d asymmetric double-well potential we calculated so-called survival probability (i.e. the probability for a particle initially localised in one well to remain there). We use a semiclassical (WKB) solution of Schroedinger…
Stochastic motion in a bistable, periodically modulated potential is discussed. The system is stimulated by a white noise increments of which have a symmetric stable L\'evy distribution. The noise is multiplicative: its intensity depends on…
We study theoretically a bistable systems with time-delayed feedback driven by weak periodic force. The effective potential function and the steady-state probability density are derived. The delay time and the strength of its feedback can…
We study the dynamics of a simple adaptive system in the presence of noise and periodic damping. The system is composed by two paths connecting a source and a sink, the dynamics is governed by equations that usually describe food search of…
In this thesis we consider stochastic resonance for a diffusion with drift given by a potential, which has two metastable states and two pathways between them. Depending on the direction of the forcing the height of the two barriers, one…
In this paper, we report stochastic resonance (SR) in a single electron turnstile. It has been known that SR emerges by the cooperation of a weak periodic signal and noise in a bistable system. A periodic signal produces switching between…
