Nonlocal-coupling-based control of coherence resonance

We demonstrate that nonlocal coupling enables control of the collective stochastic dynamics in the regime of coherence resonance. The control scheme based on the nonlocal interaction properties is presented by means of numerical simulation on an example of coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators. In particular, increasing the coupling radius is shown to enhance or to suppress the effect of coherence resonance which is reflected in the evolution of the dependence of the correlation time and the deviation of interspike intervals on the noise intensity. Nonlocal coupling is considered as an intermediate option between local and global coupling topologies which are also discussed in the context of the coherence resonance control.

Travelling waves in an ensemble of excitable oscillators: the interplay of memristive coupling and noise

Using methods of numerical simulation, we demonstrate the constructive role of memristive coupling in the context of the travelling wave formation and robustness in an ensemble of excitable oscillators described by the FitzHugh-Nagumo neuron model. First, the revealed aspects of the memristive coupling action are shown on an example of the deterministic model where the memristive properties of the coupling elements provide for achieving travelling waves at lower coupling strength as compared to non-adaptive diffusive coupling. In the presence of noise, the positive role of memristive coupling is manifested as significant increasing a noise intensity critical value corresponding to the noise-induced destruction of travelling waves as compared to classical diffusive interaction. In addition, we point out the second constructive factor, the L{é}vy noise whose properties provide for inducing travelling waves.

Feigenbaum scenario without parameters

Typically, the period-doubling bifurcations exhibited by nonlinear dissipative systems are observed when varying systems' parameters. In contrast, the period-doubling bifurcations considered in the current research are induced by changing the initial conditions whereas parameter values are fixed. Thus, the studied bifurcations can be classified as the period-doubling bifurcations without parameters. Moreover, we show a cascade of the period-doubling bifurcations without parameters resulting in transition to deterministic chaos. The explored effects are demonstrated by means of numerical modelling on an example of a modified Anishchenko-Astakhov self-oscillator where the ability to exhibit bifurcations without parameters is associated with the properties of a memristor. Finally, we compare the dynamics of the ideal-memristor-based oscillator with the behaviour of a model taking into account the memristor forgetting effect.

Generalized model for steady-state bifurcations without parameters in memristor-based oscillators with lines of equilibria

We demonstrate how the pitchfork, transcritical and saddle-node bifurcations of steady states observed in dynamical systems with a finite number of isolated equilibrium points occur in systems with lines of equilibria. The exploration is carried out by using the numerical simulation and linear stability analysis applied to a model of a memristor-based oscillator. First, all the discussed bifurcation scenarios are considered in the context of systems including Chua's memristor with a piecewise-smooth characteristic. Then the memristor characteristic is changed to a function that is smooth everywhere. Finally, the action of the memristor forgetting effect is taken into consideration. The presented results are obtained for electronic circuit models, but the considered bifurcation phenomena can be exhibited by systems with a line of equilibria of any nature.

Subcritical Andronov-Hopf scenario for systems with a line of equilibria

Using numerical simulation methods and analytical approach, we demonstrate hard self-oscillation excitation in systems with infinitely many equilibrium points forming a line of equilibria in the phase space. The studied bifurcation phenomena are equivalent to the excitation scenario via the subcritical Andronov-Hopf bifurcation observed in classical self-oscillators with isolated equilibrium points. The hysteresis and bistability accompanying the discussed processes are shown and explained. The research is carried out on an example of a nonlinear memristor-based self-oscillator model. First, a simpler model including Chua's memristor with a piecewise-smooth characteristic is explored. Then the memristor characteristic is changed to a function being smooth everywhere. Finally, the action of the memristor forgetting effect is taken into consideration.

Synchronization of periodic self-oscillators interacting via memristor-based coupling

A model of two self-sustained oscillators interacting through memristive coupling is studied. Memristive coupling is realized by using a cubic memristor model. Numerical simulation is combined with theoretical analysis by means of quasi-harmonic reduction. It is shown that specifics of the memristor nonlinearity results in appearance of infinitely many equilibrium points, which form a line of equilibria in the phase space of the system under study. It is established that possibility to observe the effect of phase locking in the considered system depends both on parameter values and initial conditions. Consequently, boundaries of a synchronization area are determined by the initial conditions. It is demonstrated that addition of a small term into the memristor state equation gives rise to disappearance of the line of equilibria and eliminates the dependence of synchronization on the initial conditions.

Hard and soft excitation of oscillations in memristor-based oscillators with a line of equilibria

A model of memristor-based Chuas oscillator is studied. The considered system has infinitely many equilibrium points, which build a line of equilibria. Bifurcational mechanisms of oscillation excitation are explored for different forms of nonlinearity. Hard and soft excitation scenarios have principally different nature. The hard excitation is determined by the memristor piecewise-smooth characteristic and is a result of a border-collision bifurcation. The soft excitation is caused by addition of a smooth nonlinear function and has distinctive features of the supercritical Andronov-Hopf bifurcation. Mechanisms of instability and amplitude limitation are described for both two cases. Numerical modelling and theoretical analysis are combined with experiments on an electronic analog model of the system under study. The issues concerning physical realization of the dynamics of systems with a line of equilibria are considered. The question on whether oscillations in such systems can be classified as the self-sustained oscillations is raised.

New type of chimera structures in a ring of bistable FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators with nonlocal interaction

We study the spatiotemporal dynamics of a ring of nonlocally coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators in the bistable regime. A new type of chimera patterns has been found in the noise-free network and when isolated elements do not oscillate. The region of existence of these structures has been explored when the coupling range and the coupling strength between the network elements are varied.

Double-well chimeras in 2D lattice of chaotic bistable elements

We investigate spatio-temporal dynamics of a 2D ensemble of nonlocally coupled chaotic cubic maps in a bistability regime. In particular, we perform a detailed study on the transition "coherence -- incoherence" for varying coupling strength for a fixed interaction radius. For the 2D ensemble we show the appearance of amplitude and phase chimera states previously reported for 1D ensembles of nonlocally coupled chaotic systems. Moreover, we uncover a novel type of chimera state, double-well chimera, which occurs due to the interplay of the bistability of the local dynamics and the 2D ensemble structure. Additionally, we find double-well chimera behaviour for steady states which we call double-well chimera death. A distinguishing feature of chimera patterns observed in the lattice is that they mainly combine clusters of different chimera types: phase, amplitude and double-well chimeras.
