Recent measurements of durations of non-equilibrium processes provide valuable information on microscopic mechanisms and energetics. Comprehensive theory for corresponding experiments so far is well developed for single-particle systems…
The quantum mechanical equivalent of parametric resonance is studied. A simple model of a periodically kicked harmonic oscillator is introduced which can be solved exactly. Classically stable and unstable regions in parameter space are…
Many theoretical calculations of subtle coherent effects in quantum mechanics do not carefully consider the interface between their calculations and experiment. Calculations for gedanken experiments using initial states not satisfied in…
Nearly all circadian clocks maintain a period that is insensitive to temperature changes, a phenomenon known as temperature compensation (TC). Yet, it is unclear whether there is any common feature among different systems that exhibit TC.…
We investigate parametric resonance in oscillator networks subjected to periodically time-varying oscillations in the edge strengths. Such models are inspired by the well-known parametric resonance phenomena for single oscillators, as well…
The study of synchronization in populations of coupled biological oscillators is fundamental to many areas of biology to include neuroscience, cardiac dynamics and circadian rhythms. Studying these systems may involve tracking the…
We discuss the corrections to the orbital period of a particle in a constant magnetic field, driven by the model of noncommutative geometry recently associated to a quantum clock. The effects are extremely small, but in principle…
We show that noise-induced oscillations in a gene circuit model display stochastic coherence, that is, a maximum in the regularity of the oscillations as a function of noise amplitude. The effect is manifest as a system-size effect in a…
The study of synchronization in biological systems is essential for the understanding of the rhythmic phenomena of living organisms at both molecular and cellular levels. In this paper, by using simple dynamical systems theory, we present a…
The circadian clock can adapt itself to external cues, but the molecular mechanisms and regulatory networks governing circadian oscillations' transient adjustments are still largely unknown. Here we consider the specific case of circadian…
Protein sequestration motifs appear in many biological regulatory networks and introduce special properties into the network dynamics. Sequestration can be described as a mode of inactivation of a given protein by its binding to a second…
This work presents the dynamic properties of charged test particles influenced by the gravitational and electromagnetic fields. Accordingly, in this work, we concentrate on the static and axially symmetric metric containing two quadrupole…
All clocks, classical or quantum, are open non equilibrium irreversible systems subject to the constraints of thermodynamics. Using examples I show that these constraints necessarily limit the performance of clocks and that good clocks…
This paper investigates the dynamics of quantum analogs of classical impact oscillators to explore how complex nonlinear behaviors manifest in quantum systems. While classical impact oscillators exhibit chaos and bifurcations, quantum…
Organisms often use cyclic changes in the concentrations of chemicals species to precisely time biological functions. Underlying these biochemical clocks are chemical reactions and transport processes, which are inherently stochastic.…
Inspired by the observation of a distributed time delay in the nonlinear response of an optical resonator, we investigate the effects of a similar delay on a noise-driven mechanical oscillator. For a delay time that is commensurate with the…
We show that quantum-interference phenomena can be realized for the dissipative nonlinear systems exhibiting hysteresis-cycle behavior and quantum chaos. Such results are obtained for a driven dissipative nonlinear oscillator with…
Many organisms possess both a cell cycle to control DNA replication and a circadian clock to anticipate changes between day and night. In some cases, these two rhythmic systems are known to be coupled by specific, cross-regulatory…
Time-decaying perturbations of nonlinear oscillatory systems in the plane are considered. It is assumed that the unperturbed systems are non-isochronous and the perturbations oscillate with an asymptotically constant frequency. Resonance…
This study investigates the interplay between a high-frequency external forcing and the intrinsic dynamics of a quantum nonlinear parametric oscillator. To analyze this system, classical equations of motion of the averages of quantum…
