Entropic noise induced stability and double entropic stochastic resonance induced by correlated noises

For the activated dynamics of a Brownian particle moving in a confined system with the presence of entropic barriers, this paper investigates a periodic driving and correlations between two noises. Within the two-state approximation, the explicit expressions of the mean first passage time (MFPT) and the spectral power amplification (SPA) are obtained, respectively. Based on the numerical computations, it is found that: (i) The MFPT as a function of the noise intensity exhibits a maximum with the positive correlations between two noises (λ>0), this maximum for MFPT shows the characteristic of the entropic noise induced stability (ENIS) effect. The intensity λ of correlations between two noises can enhance the ENIS effect. (ii) The SPA as a function of the noise intensity exhibits a double-peak by tuning the noise correlation intensity λ, i.e., the existence of a double-peak behaviour is the identifying characteristic of the double entropic stochastic resonance phenomenon.     

Stationary properties of a single-mode laser system with non-Gaussian and Gaussian noise

A single-mode laser system with non-Gaussian and Gaussian noise is investigated. The stationary mean value and the normalized variance of the laser intensity are numerically calculated under the condition that the stationary probability distribution function (SPDF) is derived. The SPDF as a function of the laser intensity exhibits a maximum. The maximum becomes smaller with the increase of the correlation intensity or the non-Gaussian parameter, where the later is a measure of the deviation from the Gaussian characteristic. The maximum becomes larger as the correlation time increases. The laser intensity stationary mean value decreases with the increase of the correlation intensity or the non-Gaussian parameter while increases with the correlation time increasing. The laser intensity normalized variance increases with the increase of the correlation intensity or the non-Gaussian parameter while decreases as the correlation time increases.     

Stochastic resonance in a bistable system with time-delayed feedback and non-Gaussian noise

The phenomenon of stochastic resonance in a bistable system with time-delayed feedback driven by non-Gaussian noise is investigated. Combining the small time delay approximation, the path-integral approach and the unified colored noise approximation, a general approximate Fokker–Planck equation of a stochastic system is obtained. The effects of the parameter q indicating the departure from the Gaussian noise, the delay time τ  , and the correlation time τ₀${\tau }_0$ of the non-Gaussian noise on the quasi-steady-state probability distribution function (SPD) and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are discussed. It is found that the number of peaks in SPD and the reentrant transition between one peak and two peaks and then to one peak again in the curve of SNR depends on the parameter q, the delay time τ  , and the noise correlation time τ₀${\tau }_0$.

Mean First-Passage Time of an Asymmetric Kinetic Model Driven by Two Different Kinds of Colored Noises

The mean first-passage time （MFPT） of an asymmetric bistable system between multiplicative non-Gaussian noise and additive Gaussian white noise with nonzero cross-correlation time is investigated. Firstly, the non-Markov process is reduced to the Markov process through a path-integral approach; Secondly, the approximate Fokker Planck equation is obtained by applying the unified colored noise approximation and the.Novikov Theorem. The steady-state probability distribution （SPD） is also obtained. The basal functional analysis and simplification are employed to obtain the approximate expressions of MFPT T^±. The effects of the asymmetry parameter β, the non-Gaussian parameter （measures deviation from Gaussian character） r, the noise correlation times τ and τ2, the coupling coefficient A, the intensities D and a of noise on the MFPT are discussed. It is found that the asymmetry parameter β, the non-Gaussian parameter r and the coupling coefficient A can induce phase transition. Moreover, the main findings are that the effect of self-existent parameters （D, α, and τ） of noise and cross-correlation parameters （A, 7-2） between noises on MFPT T^± is different.

Anomalous diffusion in silo drainage

The silo discharge process is studied by molecular dynamics simulations. The development of the velocity profile and the probability density function for the displacements in the horizontal and vertical axis are obtained. The PDFs obtained at the beginning of the discharge reveal non-Gaussian statistics and superdiffusive behaviors. When the stationary flow is developed, the PDFs at shorter temporal scales are non-Gaussian too. For big orifices a well-defined transition between ballistic and diffusive regime is observed. In the case of a small outlet orifice, no well-defined transition is observed. We use a nonlinear diffusion equation introduced in the framework of non-extensive thermodynamics in order to describe the movements of the grains. The solution of this equation gives a well-defined relationship (γ= 2/(3-q)) between the anomalous diffusion exponent γ and the entropic parameter q introduced by the non-extensive formalism to fit the PDF of the fluctuations.     

Entropic stochastic resonance in a confined asymmetrical bistable system with non-Gaussian noise

Particles moving in confined regions with bistable potential driven by weak signal and fluctuations may present a similar stochastic resonance (SR). This similar SR is called entropic stochastic resonance (ESR). The phenomenon of ESR in a confined asymmetrical bistable potential driven by a transverse periodic force is investigated when a non-Gaussian fluctuation is considered in the system. The left potential of the bistable system can be adjusted by introducing the asymmetrical ratio α. By the functional analysis and two-state theory, the approximate Signal-to-Noise ratio (SNR) is derived. It is found that there is a global maximum in the SNR curves when the asymmetrical ratio α and the noise intensity D are changed. It is also shown that the noise correlation time τ will suppress the ESR of the system and the departure q can obviously change the position of peak in the SNR. The above clues are helpful in achieving weak signal detection under irregular, small-scale systems.     

Effects of non-Gaussian noise on a calcium oscillation system

We investigate the effects of the non-Gaussian colored noise on a calcium oscillation system using stochastic simulation methods. It is found that the reciprocal coefficient of variance R has a maximum (R max ) with increasing noise intensity Q. The non-Gaussian noise parameter q has an important effect on the system. For some values of q (e.g., q = 0.9, q = 1.0), R has a maximum with increasing correlation time τ. Non-Gaussian noise induced spikes are more regular than Gaussian noise induced spikes when q is small and Q has large values. The R has a maximum with increasing q. Therefore, non-Gaussian noise could play more effective roles in the calcium oscillation system.     

Multiplicative non-Gaussian noise and additive Gaussian white noise induced transition in a piecewise nonlinear model

We study the transition problems in a piecewise nonlinear model induced by correlated multiplicative non-Gaussian noise and additive Gaussian white noise. Firstly, applying the path integral approach, the unified colored noise approximation, the analytical expression of the steady-state probability density function (SPD) is derived. Then the change regulation of the SPD is analyzed with the change of the strength and relevance of multiplicative noise and additive noise. From numerical computations we obtain some new nonlinear phenomena: the transition can be induced by the cross-correlation strength between noises, the non-Gaussian noise intensity and the Gaussian noise intensity as well as the non-Gaussian noise deviation parameter. This indicates that the effect of the non-Gaussian noise intensity on SPD is the same as that of the Gaussian noise intensity. Moreover, we also find the correlation time of the non-Gaussian noise can not induce the transition.

Transient Properties of a Bistable System with Delay Time Driven by Non-Gaussian and Gaussian Noises: Mean First-Passage Time

The mean first-passage time of a bistable system with time-delayed feedback driven by multiplicative non-Gaussian noise and additive Gaussian white noise is investigated. Firstly, the non-Markov process is reduced to the Markov process through a path-integral approach; Secondly, the approximate Fokker-Planck equation is obtained by applying the unified coloured noise approximation, the small time delay approximation and the Novikov Theorem. The functional analysis and simplification are employed to obtain the approximate expressions of MFPT. The effects of non-Gaussian parameter (measures deviation from Gaussian character) r, the delay time τ, the noise correlation time τ₀, the intensities D and α of noise on the MFPT are discussed. It is found that the escape time could be reduced by increasing the delay time τ, the noise correlation time τ₀, or by reducing the intensities D and α. As far as we know, this is the first time to consider the effect of delay time on the mean first-passage time in the stochastic dynamical system.

Effects of non-Gaussian noise near supercritical Hopf bifurcation

We have studied the effects of non-Gaussian colored noise in a chemical oscillation system, the well-known Brusselator model, in the parameter region close to the supercritical Hopf bifurcation. With the variation of the parameter q, which quantifies the deviation from Gaussian character, the signal-to-noise ratio of noise induced oscillation exhibits a bell-shaped change, indicating the presence of resonant activity. The cooperative effects of q and the correlation time τ on the performance of noise induced oscillation are also investigated. Interestingly, resonance-like behavior can be induced by either q or τ when the other parameter is properly fixed. Stochastic normal form theory is used to analyze these nontrivial effects and the simulation results are well reproduced. This work provides us comprehensive understanding of how non-Gaussian noise influences the dynamics in chemical oscillation systems.     

Effect of time delay in FitzHugh-Nagumo neural model with correlations between multiplicative and additive noises

We study the effect of time delay in the FitzHugh-Nagumo neural model with correlations between multiplicative and additive noise terms. Based on the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation, the explicit expressions of the stationary probability distribution function (SPDF), the mean first passage time (MFPT) and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are obtained, respectively. Research results show that: (i) the system undergoes a succession of two phase transitions (i.e., the reentrance phenomenon) as the noise correlation parameter is increased and a (single) phase transition as the time delay is increased. (ii) The MFPT as a function of the multiplicative noise intensity exhibits a maximum. This maximum for MFPT identifies the noise enhanced stability (NES) effect, the noise correlation parameter intensifies the NES effect while the time delay, and the additive noise intensity weakens it. (iii) The existence of a maximum in the SNR as a function of the multiplicative noise intensity is the identifying characteristic of the stochastic resonance (SR) phenomenon, the noise correlation parameter enhances the SR while the time delay, and the additive noise intensity weaken it.

Asymmetric stochastic resonance under non-Gaussian colored noise and time-delayed feedback

Based on adiabatic approximation theory, in this paper we study the asymmetric stochastic resonance system with time-delayed feedback driven by non-Gaussian colored noise. The analytical expressions of the mean first-passage time(MFPT) and output signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) are derived by using a path integral approach, unified colored-noise approximation(UCNA), and small delay approximation. The effects of time-delayed feedback and non-Gaussian colored noise on the output SNR are analyzed. Moreover, three types of asymmetric potential function characteristics are thoroughly discussed. And they are well-depth asymmetry(DASR), well-width asymmetry(WASR), and synchronous action of welldepth and well-width asymmetry(DWASR), respectively. The conclusion of this paper is that the time-delayed feedback can suppress SR, however, the non-Gaussian noise deviation parameter has the opposite effect. Moreover, the correlation time plays a significant role in improving SNR, and the SNR of asymmetric stochastic resonance is higher than that of symmetric stochastic resonance. Our experiments demonstrate that the appropriate parameters can make the asymmetric stochastic resonance perform better to detect weak signals than the symmetric stochastic resonance, in which no matter whether these signals have low frequency or high frequency, accompanied by strong or weak noise.     

Upper bound for the time derivative of entropy for a stochastic dynamical system with double singularities driven by non-Gaussian noise

A stochastic dynamical system with double singularities driven by non-Gaussian noise is investigated. The Fokker--Plank equation of the system is obtained through the path-integral approach and the method of transformation. Based on the definition of Shannon's information entropy and the Schwartz inequality principle, the upper bound for the time derivative of entropy is calculated both in the absence and in the presence of non-equilibrium constraint. The present calculations can be used to interpret the effects of the system dissipative parameter, the system singularity strength parameter, the noise correlation time and the noise deviation parameter on the upper bound.
