The question of stability is one of the basic questions in the theory of oscillations. The in#uence of external forces or parametric perturbation of the system may lead to di!erent resonant phenomena . If the parameters of the system are #uctuating, the corresponding resonance is called a stochastic parametric resonance (SPR) [2}4]. It has to be distinguished from the phenomenon described in reference , where external forces cause resonant transitions between the neighboring potential wells. SPR manifests itself in the increase of the moments of higher orders with time, while the mean values of the system remain "nite. Then the question of stability of the corresponding oscillations is an important one in the investigation of di!erent technical devices. It is known that relaxation (linear friction) in the system leads to the appearance of the lower boundary for the value of #uctuation intensity necessary for a rise of SPR . Non-linear friction (velocity times the square of the co-ordinate) stabilizes SPR , that can be easily understood by simple consideration of energy conservation.

It is shown that a dynamical system subject to both periodic forcing and random perturbation may show a resonance (peak in the power spectrum) which is absent when either the forcing or the perturbation is absent.

It is argued, on the basis of linear response theory (LRT), that new types of stochastic resonance (SR) are to be anticipated in diverse systems, quite different from the one most commonly studied to date, which has a static double-well potential and is driven by a net force equal to the sum of periodic and stochastic terms. On this basis, three new nonconventional forms of SR are predicted, sought, found, and investigated both theoretically and by analogue electronic experiment: (a) in monostable systems; (b) in bistable systems with periodically modulated noise; and (c) in a system with coexisting periodic attractors. In each case, it is shown that LRT can provide a good quantitative description of the experimental results for sufficiently weak driving fields. It is concluded that SR is a much more general phenomenon than has hitherto been appreciated.

Stochastic resonance (SR), in which a periodic signal in a nonlinear system can be amplified by added noise, is discussed. The application of circuit modeling techniques to the conventional form of SR, which occurs in static bistable potentials, was considered in a companion paper. Here, the investigation of nonconventional forms of SR in part using similar electronic techniques is described. In the small-signal limit, the results are well described in terms of linear response theory. Some other phenomena of topical interest, closely related to SR, are also treated.

Stochastic resonance (SR), a phenomenon in which a periodic signal in a nonlinear system can be amplified by added noise, is introduced and discussed. Techniques for investigating SR using electronic circuits are described in practical terms. The physical nature of SR, and the explanation of weak-noise SR as a linear response phenomenon, are considered. Conventional SR, for systems characterized by static bistable potentials, is described together with examples of the data obtainable from the circuit models used to test the theory.

High frequency stochastic resonance (SR) phenomena, associated with fluctuational transitions between coexisting periodic attractors, have been investigated experimentally in an electronic model of a single-well Duffing oscillator bistable in a nearly resonant field of frequency $\omega_F$. It is shown that, with increasing noise intensity, the signal/noise ratio (SNR) for a signal due to a weak trial force of frequency $\Omega \sim \omega_F$ at first decreases, then {\it increases}, and finally decreases again at higher noise intensities: behaviour similar to that observed previously for conventional (low frequency) SR in systems with static bistable potentials. The stochastic enhancement of the SNR of an additional signal at the mirror-reflected frequency $\vert \Omega - 2 \omega_F \vert$ is also observed, in accordance with theoretical predictions. Relationships with phenomena in nonlinear optics are discussed.

Nonlinear systems are abundant in nature. Their dynamics have been investigated very extensively, motivated partly by their multidisciplinary applicability, ranging from all branches of physical and mathematical sciences through engineering to the life sciences and medicine. When driven by external forces, nonlinear systems can exhibit a plethora of interesting and important properties—one of the most prominent being that of resonance. In the presence of a second, higher frequency, driving force, whether stochastic or deterministic/periodic, a resonance phenomenon arises that can generally be termed stochastic resonance or vibrational resonance. Operating a system in or out of resonance promises applications in several advanced technologies, such as the creation of novel materials at the nano, micro and macroscales including, but not limited to, materials having photonic band gaps, quantum control of atoms and molecules as well as miniature condensed matter systems. Motivated in par...

We propose a method to analytically show the possibility for the appearance of a maximum in the signal-to-noise ratio in nonpotential systems. We apply our results to the FitzHugh-Nagumo model under a periodic external forcing, showing that the model exhibits stochastic resonance. The procedure that we follow is based on the reduction to a one-dimensional dynamics in the adiabatic limit and in the topology of the phase space of the systems under study. Its application to other nonpotential systems is also discussed.

We introduce an open-loop control scheme for stochastic resonators; the scheme permits the enhancement or suppression of the spectral response to threshold-crossing events triggered by a timeperiodic signal in background noise. The control is demonstrated in experiments using a Schmitt trigger. A generic two-state theory captures the essential features observed in our experiments and in numerical simulations; this suggests the generality of the effect. [S0031-9007(99)09258-3] PACS numbers: 05.40.Ca, 02.50.Ey, 47.20.Ky, 85.25.Dq Stochastic resonance (SR) is a nonlinear noise-mediated cooperative phenomenon wherein the coherent response to a deterministic signal can be enhanced in the presence of an optimal amount of noise. Since its inception in 1981 [1], SR has been demonstrated in diverse systems including sensory neurons, mammalian neuronal tissue, lasers, SQUIDs, tunnel diodes, and communications devices. Variations and extensions of the classical definition of SR to include aperiodic (e.g., dc or wideband) signals, with the detector response quantified by various information-theoretic or spectral cross-correlation measures, have also appeared in the literature.

The susceptibility of an overdamped Markov system fluctuating in a bistable potential of general form is obtained by analytic solution of the Fokker-Planck equation (FPE) for low noise intensities. The results are discussed in the context of the LRT theory of stochastic resonance. They go over into recent results (Gang Hu et al {\em Phys. Lett. A} {\bf 172}, 21, 1992) obtained from the FPE for the case of a symmetrical potential, and they coincide with the LRT results (Dykman et al, {\em Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 65}, 2606, 1990; {\em JETP Lett} {\bf 52}, 144, 1990; {\em Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 68}, 2985, 1992) obtained for the general case of bistable systems.
Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation
Recently, stochastic resonance was obtained numerically in an underdamped periodic potential system driven by a periodic force and a Gaussian white noise. In that numerical work, the occurrence of stochastic resonance was explained in terms of the existence of two dynamical states having different amplitude and phase lag. At zero temperature these two initial condition dependent dynamical states are stable. However, at elevated temperatures, these two states make transitions from one to the other at a mean rate. In the present work, we setup an analog simulation experiment to show the existence of the two dynamical states in a sinusoidal potential system as well as to verify the occurrence of stochastic resonance in the same system. The experimental procedure includes setting the initial conditions for the experiment.

We investigate the stochastic resonance phenomenon in a physical system based on a tunnel diode. The experimental control parameters are set to allow the control of the frequency and amplitude of the deterministic modulating signal over an interval of values spanning several orders of magnitude. We observe both a regime described by the linear-response theory and the nonlinear deviation from it. In the nonlinear regime we detect saturation of the power spectral density of the output signal detected at the frequency of the modulating signal and a dip in the noise level of the same spectral density. When these effects are observed we detect a phase and frequency synchronization between the stochastic output and the deterministic input.

A model of a two-dimensional autonomous system subject to external noise is investigated. Without noise the system has a stable limit cycle in a certain region of control parameter. Various noise-induced eAects have been found numerically, such as a noise-induced frequency shift in the presence of the deterministic limit cycle, and noise-induced coherent oscillations in the absence of the deterministic limit cycle. An interesting result is that the stochastic resonance phenomenon appears in a system without an external signal and when the asymptotic state of the deterministic system is stationary.
The phenomenon of stochastic resonance (SR) in a biased mono-stable system driven by multiplicative and additive white noise and two periodic fields is investigated. Analytic expressions of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for fundamental harmonics and higher harmonics are derived by using the two-state theory. It is shown that the SNR is a non-monotonic function of the intensities of the multiplicative and additive noises, as well as the bias of the mono-stable system and SR appears at both fundamental harmonics and higher harmonics. Moreover, the higher the order of mixed harmonics is, the smaller the SNR values are, that is, the suppression exists for higher harmonics.

The possibility to separate a useful signal from the realization of the random process representing the sum of the harmonic signal and Gaussian noise, using the method of stochastic resonance, is shown. The results of calculation of the signal-to-noise ratio at the output of a nonlinear device, creating an effect of stochastic resonance, are given. It is shown that the nonlinear device, described by the equation of stochastic resonance, operates as a stochastic low-pass filter. A simulation model of a non-linear device possessing effect of SR is constructed.

We present an analytical study of the enhancement of the signal-to-noise ratio in a monostable non-harmonic potential. We make use of the exact expression for the di usion propagator obtained in a previous work, ÿnding a monotonically increasing response with the noise amplitude. On the other hand, for the ÿrst time, we provide a cut-o to such an increase, which prevents a probability leakage out of the system.

Stochastic resonance induced by multiplicative white noise is theoretically studied in forced damped monostable oscillators. A stochastic amplitude equation is derived for the oscillation envelope, which has a linear stochastic resonance. This phenomenon is persistent when nonlinearities are considered. We propose three simple systems-a horizontally driven pendulum, a forced electrical circuit and a laser with an injected signal-that display this stochastic resonance. References 12

The concept of controlling stochastic resonance has been recently introduced ͓L. Gammaitoni et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 4574 ͑1999͔͒ to enhance or suppress the spectral response to threshold-crossing events triggered by a time-periodic signal in background noise. Here, we develop a general theoretical framework, based on a rate equation approach. This generic two-state theory captures the essential features observed in our experiments and numerical simulations.

An amenable, analytical two-state description of the nonlinear population dynamics of a noisy bistable system driven by a rectangular subthreshold signal is put forward. Explicit expressions for the driven population dynamics, the correlation function (its coherent and incoherent part), the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the Stochastic Resonance (SR) gain are obtained. Within a suitably chosen range of parameter values this reduced description yields anomalous SR-gains exceeding unity and, simultaneously, gives rise to a non-monotonic behavior of the SNR vs. the noise strength. The analytical results agree well with those obtained from numerical solutions of the Langevin equation.

Suppose one wants to look at a weak periodic signal within a random noise: a way to improve the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) is to use a lock-in amplifier, but the frequency of the periodic component must be known to achieve a high amplification. A different method is offered by the mechanism of Stochastic Resonance (SR) 1.2.
