Associated relaxation time and intensity correlation function of a bistable system driven by cross-correlation additive and multiplicative coloured noise sources

The associated relaxation time and the intensity correlation function of a bistable system driven by an additive and a multiplicative coloured noise with coloured cross-correlation are investigated. Using the Novikov theorem and the projection operator method, the analytic expressions of the stationary probability distribution P_st(x), the relaxation time T_c, and the normalized correlation function C(s) of the system are obtained. The effects of the noise intensity, the cross-correlation strength λ and the cross-correlation time τ are discussed. By numerical computation, it is found that the cross-correlation strength |λ| and the quantum noise intensity D decrease the relaxation of the system from unstable points. The cross-correlation time τ delays relaxation of the system from unstable points. The cross-correlation strength λ and the cross-correlation time τ can alter the effects of the pump noise intensity Q. Thus, the relaxation time T_c is a stochastic resonant phenomenon, and distribution curves exhibit a single-maximum structure.     

Colored Noise Enhanced Stability in a Tumor Cell Growth System Under Immune Response

In this paper, we investigate a mathematical model for describing the growth of tumor cell under immune response, which is driven by cross-correlation between multiplicative and additive colored noises as well as the nonzero cross-correlation in between. The expression of the mean first-passage time (MFPT) is obtained by virtue of the steepest-descent approximation. It is found: (i) When the noises are negatively cross-correlated (λ<0), then the escape is faster than in the case with no correlation (λ=0); when the noises are positively cross-correlated (λ>0), then the escape is slower than in the case with no correlation. Moreover, in the case of positive cross-correlation, the escape time has a maximum for a certain intensity of one of the noises, i.e., the maximum for MFPT identifies the noise enhanced stability of the cancer state. (ii) The effect of the cross-correlation time τ ₃ on the MFPT is completely opposite for λ>0 and λ<0. (iii) The self-correlation times τ ₁ and τ ₂ of colored noises can enhance stability of the cancer state, while the immune rate β can reduce it.     

Effects of time delay on the statistical fluctuations for a bistable system driven by cross-correlated noises

We study the effects of time delay on the normalized correlation function C(s) and the associated relaxation time T _c for a bistable system with correlations between multiplicative and additive white noises under the condition of small time delay. Using the projection operator method, the expressions of T _c and C(s) are obtained. Based on numerical computations, it is found that the delay time τ slows down the rate of fluctuation decay of dynamical variable for the presence of positive feedback intensity (∈ > 0), while speeds up the rate of fluctuation decay of dynamical variable for the presence of negative feedback intensity (∈ < 0). The effects of the delay time τ on the T _c and C(s) are entirely opposite for ∈ 〉 0 and ∈ < 0.      

The Effects of Time Delay on Stochastic Resonance in a Bistable System with Correlated Noises

The effects of time delay on stochastic resonance (SR) in a bistable system with time delay, correlated noises and periodic signal are studied by using the theory of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The expression of the SNR is derived under the adiabatic limit and the small delay time approximation. It is found that: (i) For the case of no correlations between multiplicative and additive noise, the delay time τ can enhance the SNR as a function of the multiplicative noise intensity α and it can restrain the SNR as a function of the additive noise intensity D; (ii) For the case of correlations between multiplicative and additive noise, τ can induce a minimum and maximum in curve of the SNR as a function of α, and can intensively restrain the SNR as a function of the D and there is a critical value of delay tim τ _c =0.1 in the height of the SNR peak with change of τ, i.e., when τ takes value blow τ _c , the τ boosts up the SNR as a function of the strength λ of correlations between multiplicative and additive noise, however, when τ takes value above τ _c , the τ restrains that.

Stochastic tumor growth system with two different kinds of time delay

The dynamical properties of a noise-driven tumor cell growth system are investigated when there exist two different kinds of time delays, in the deterministic and fluctuating forces, respectively. Using the approximation probability density approach, the delayed Fokker-Planck equation is obtained. The effects of two different time delays on the stationary probability distribution (SPD), the mean value and the mean passage time (MFPT) are discussed. It is found that the time delay τ₁ in the deterministic force can enhance tumor cell number, while the time delay τ₂ in the fluctuating force can induce a decrease in tumor cell numbers. On the other hand, while τ₁ can hold back the extinction of tumor cells, τ₂ can speed up their extinction.     

Colored Noises-Induced Regime Shifts in a Vegetation Ecological System

In this paper, we investigate the stationary probability distribution and mean first passage time in a vegetation ecological system, which is driven by cross-correlation between intrinsic and extrinsic colored noises as well as the nonzero cross-correlation in between. The impacts of the self-correlation time τ₁ and τ₂, the cross-correlation time τ₃ and intensity k on the stationary probability distribution and mean first passage time are discussed, respectively. Our main results show that: (#em/em#) the self-correlation time τ₁ can induce regime shifts from the desert state to the sustainable vegetation state, while the self-correlation time τ₂, cross-correlation time τ₃ and intensity k can induce regime shifts from the sustainable vegetation state to the desert state; and (ii) the self-correlation time τ₁ or τ₂ can enhance the stability of the sustainable vegetation biomass, while the cross-correlation time τ₃ or strength k weakens the stability of the sustainable vegetation biomass.     

The Asymptotic Limits of Zero Modes of Massless Dirac Operators

Asymptotic behaviors of zero modes of the massless Dirac operator H = α · D + Q(x) are discussed, where α = (α₁, α₂, α₃) is the triple of 4 × 4 Dirac matrices, , and Q(x) = (q _jk (x)) is a 4 × 4 Hermitian matrix-valued function with | q _jk (x) | ≤ C 〈x〉^−ρ, ρ > 1. We shall show that for every zero mode f, the asymptotic limit of |x|² f (x) as |x| → + ∞ exists. The limit is expressed in terms of the Dirac matrices and an integral of Q(x) f (x).

Colored noise driven systems with inertia

We present a novel approximation scheme, termed unified colored noise approximation (UCNA), for colored Gaussian noise driven nonlinear systems with inertia. This approximation allows one to evaluate static (stationary distributions, moments) as well as dynamical quantities (correlation functions) for small-to-moderate-to-large values of the correlation time. The approximation replaces a three-dimensional Markovian process by a reduced, two-dimensional Markovian dynamics with new drift and diffusion coefficients. For a harmonic potential the stationary moments are reproduced exactly. Most importantly, we present a criterion involving the noise strengthD, the friction strength and the noise color , which describes the region of validity of UCNA in the parameter space given by (D, , ). At small -values we contrast the UCNA with the well-known small approximation. In order to have a comparison onanalytical grounds, we test the static and dynamical predictions of UCNA versus the well-known analytical results obtained from a three-dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process.     

Stochastic resonance in a bistable system with global delay and two noises

The global time delay is introduced into a bistable system driven by two noises and a periodic signal. The signal power amplification factor η is employed to characterise stochastic resonance (SR) of the system. Numerical simulation results indicate the following. (1) For a periodic signal with low frequency (Ω), the typical behaviour of the SR is lowered monotonically by increasing the delay time τ; for moderate Ω, τ enhances the SR behaviour and then weakens it, with a critical value at which the SR is optimum. (2) Multiplicative noise intensity D and additive noise intensity α have different influences on the SR performance, viz D enhances the SR monotonically while α enforces the SR initially and then restrains it; (3) correlation intensity λ between the two noises always weakens the SR behaviour of the system.

Influence of collisional coupling on the energy extraction from theB,C, andD state in KrF

Collisional coupling between theB, C, andD states of KrF is measured in a discharge pumped KrF laser. Detection of the time resolved populations in the three states via measurement of the side fluorescence in theB→X, C→A, andD→X bands is used to record the collisional relaxation from theC andD state to theB state during laser emission. The experimentally determined limits for the collisional coupling times are τ_B-C≦1 ns and τ_B-D,τ_C-D<20 ns at total pressures of 2 bar. Investigation of theB→X fluorescence band shows that the vibrational manifold of theB state is not thermalized during laser emission. TheV-V,T coupling time is estimated to be τ_V-V,T=4±2 ns. The influence of collisional coupling on energy extraction in the KrF laser is discussed.     

Hitting Time and Dimension in Axiom A Systems, Generic Interval Exchanges and an Application to Birkoff Sums

In this note we prove that for equilibrium states of axiom A systems having positive dimension the time τ _B (x) needed for a typical point x to enter for the first time in a typical ball B with radius r behaves for small r as τ _B (x)∼ r ^−d where d is the local dimension of the invariant measure at the center of the ball. A similar relation is proved for a full measure set of interval exchanges. Some applications to Birkoff averages of unbounded (and not L ¹) functions are shown.

Wavelet analysis of learning and forgetting of photostimulation rhythms for a nonstationary electroencephalogram

Quantitative parameters characterizing transient processes of mastering and forgetting of photostimulation (PST) rhythms for a nonstationary electroencephalogram (EEG) are developed on the basis of a continuous wavelet transformation. Nonstationarity factor K _nst(μ), as well as rhythm mastering K _M (μ) and confinement K _C (μ) factors are calculated for various spectral ranges μ. Photoflash mastering time τ _M = τ _S + τ _I , which is the sum of latent silence period τ _S after PST actuation and the rhythm increasing period τ _I is calculated. In the case of PST, the EEG rhythm retardation time τ _R relative to the beginning of PST is calculated. Rhythm forgetting time τ _F = τ _P + τ _D after PST actuation is the sum of the preservation time τ _P of the corresponding rhythm over a certain time interval and its decay period τ _D . The lag time τ _L of the EEG signal relative to the PST signal after its removal is determined. The proposed method is used in quantitative analysis and classification of transient processes characterizing the properties of the central nervous system. Possible applications of the method in analysis of various nonstationary signals in physics are discussed.     

Stationary Properties and Stochastic Resonance for a Saturation Laser Model with Cross-correlation Between Quantum Noise Terms

The stationary properties of a saturation laser model with cross-correlation between the real and imaginary parts of the quantum noise are investigated theoretically. Using the Novikov theorem and the Sargent technique, we obtain the analytic expressions of the stationary probability density distribution, the mean, the variance and the skewness of the saturation laser model. The cross-correlation coefficient λ and other parameters can make the stationary probability density distribution P _st (I) generate interesting two-extrema structure, one-extremum structure, or no-extremum structure. It is clearly found that a first- order-like-transition is induced by the coupling strength |λ| of the complex quantum noise terms in the saturation laser model. When the laser system is operated above the threshold, the mean 〈I〉 becomes larger and the output of the laser intensity increases; however the coupling strength |λ| attenuates the output of the laser intensity. When the laser is operated near and below the threshold, the mean 〈I〉 becomes smaller, the output of the laser intensity decreases, and |λ| still attenuates the output of the laser intensity. When a periodic signal is added to a saturation laser model with cross-correlation between quantum noise terms, the interesting stochastic resonance phenomena occur at λ=0. The noise intensity Q decreases the values of the resonance peak, however, the amplitude of the periodic signal B enhances the values of the resonance peak.     

Diffusion study of nitrogen implanted into <Emphasis Type="Italic">α</Emphasis>-Hf using the nuclear resonance technique

The diffusion of nitrogen in α-Hf was studied in the temperature range of (823–1123) K using the ion implantation and nuclear resonance techniques. The measurements show that the diffusion coefficients follow the Arrhenius behavior D(T)=D ₀exp (−Q/RT) with D ₀=(5.5±2.1)×10⁻⁷ m²/s and Q=(228±1) kJ/mol. A comparison of the present results with the previous one is done.     

Relaxation phenomena of binary polar liquid mixture in C6H6 from conductivity of solution measured at 10 GHz electric field

The dielectric relaxation times τ _jk ’s and dipole moments μ _jk ’s of the binary (jk) polar mixtures of N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) and pyridine dissolved in benzene (i) are estimated using linear slope of σ _jk ″ − σ _ijk ′ curves as well as ratio of slopes of σ _ijk ″ − w _jk and σ _ijk ″ − w _jk curves at w _jk → 0 for different mole fractions τ _jk ’s of pyridine and experimental temperatures under 9.875 GHz electric field. The measured μ _jk ’s and τ _jk ’s agree well with the reported values validating the proposed methods. The solute-solute (dimer) molecular associations are inferred from the plot of τ _jk − x _j and μ _jk − x _j curves for x _j = 0.0 to 0.5 of pyridine and thereafter solute-solvent (monomer) molecular association occurs. The theoretical μ_theo’s are calculated to predict solute-solute and solute-solvent molecular association. The μ _jk − T curves are drawn to show elongation of bond angles and bond moments with temperatures. The thermodynamic energy parameters are calculated from Eyring’s rate theory equations to know the molecular dynamics as well as to ascertain Debye-Smyth relaxation mechanism of the systems.     

Near-ordering structural transitions in amorphous metal alloys

The temperature variations in the modulus of elasticity (Young’s modulus) E and internal friction Q ⁻¹ of the amorphous metal alloys Ti₅₀Cu_50−x Ni_x (5⩽x⩽20) are studied at temperatures of 300–800 K. There is an anomalous increase in E(T) at temperatures above T _x (which varies from 440 to 525 K, depending on the composition). When the amount of nickel in the alloy is high (x>12 at. %), a small peak shows up in Q ⁻¹(T). These effects are related to structural transitions in near-ordering regions (clusters). A model for structural relaxation of near ordering in amorphous alloys is proposed on the basis of these experiments. Fiz. Tverd. Tela (St. Petersburg) 40, 389–392 (March 1998)
