For a model nonlinear dynamical system, we show how one may obtain its bifurcation behavior by introducing noise into the dynamics and then studying the resulting Langevin dynamics in the weak-noise limit. A suitable quantity to capture the bifurcation behavior in the noisy dynamics is the conditional probability to observe a microscopic configuration at one time, conditioned on the observation of a given configuration at an earlier time. For our model system, this conditional probability is studied by using two complementary approaches, the Fokker-Planck and the path-integral approach. The latter has the advantage of yielding exact closed-form expressions for the conditional probability. All our predictions are in excellent agreement with direct numerical integration of the dynamical equations of motion.

An efficient technique is introduced for model inference of complex nonlinear dynamical systems driven by noise. The technique does not require extensive global optimization, provides optimal compensation for noise-induced errors and is robust in a broad range %of parameters of dynamical models. It is applied to clinically measured blood pressure signal for the simultaneous inference of the strength, directionality, and the noise intensities in the nonlinear interaction between the cardiac and respiratory oscillations.
Proponents of Complexity Science believe that the huge variety of emergent phenomena observed throughout nature, are generated by relatively few microscopic mechanisms. Skeptics however point to the lack of concrete examples in which a single mechanistic model manages to capture relevant macroscopic and microscopic properties for two or more distinct systems operating across radically different length and time scales. Here we show how a single complexity model built around cluster coalescence and fragmentation, can cross the fundamental divide between many-body quantum physics and social science. It simultaneously (i) explains a mysterious recent finding of Fratini et al. concerning quantum many-body effects in cuprate superconductors (i.e. scale of 10^{-9} - 10^{-4} meters and 10^{-12} - 10^{-6} seconds), (ii) explains the apparent universality of the casualty distributions in distinct human insurgencies and terrorism (i.e. scale of 10^3 - 10^6 meters and 10^4 - 10^8 seconds), (iii) shows consistency with various established empirical facts for financial markets, neurons and human gangs and (iv) makes microscopic sense for each application. Our findings also suggest that a potentially productive shift can be made in Complexity research toward the identification of equivalent many-body dynamics in both classical and quantum regimes.
Many neuronal systems and models display a certain class of mixed mode oscillations (MMOs) consisting of periods of small amplitude oscillations interspersed with spikes. Various models with different underlying mechanisms have been proposed to generate this type of behavior. Stochast
We construct an analytical theory of interplay between synchronizing effects by common noise and by global coupling for a general class of smooth limit-cycle oscillators. Both the cases of attractive and repulsive coupling are considered. The derivation is performed within the framework of the phase reduction, which fully accounts for the amplitude degrees of freedom. Firstly, we consider the case of identical oscillators subject to intrinsic noise, obtain the synchronization condition, and find that the distribution of phase deviations always possesses lower-law heavy tails. Secondly, we consider the case of nonidentical oscillators. For the average oscillator frequency as a function of the natural frequency mismatch, limiting scaling laws are derived; these laws exhibit the nontrivial phenomenon of frequency repulsion accompanying synchronization under negative coupling. The analytical theory is illustrated with examples of Van der Pol and Van der Pol--Duffing oscillators and the neuron-like FitzHugh--Nagumo system; the results are also underpinned by the direct numerical simulation for ensembles of these oscillators.
A nonlinear model representing the tribological problem of a thin solid lubricant layer between two sliding periodic surfaces is used to analyze the phenomenon of hysteresis at pinning/depinning around a moving state rather than around a statically pinned state. The cycling of an external driving force F_ext is used as a simple means to destroy and then to recover the dynamically pinned state previously discovered for the lubricant center-of-mass velocity. De-pinning to a quasi-freely sliding state occurs either directly, with a single jump, or through a sequence of discontinuous transitions. The intermediate sliding steps are reminiscent of phase-locked states and stick-slip motion in static friction, and can be interpreted in terms of the appearance of travelling density defects in an otherwise regular arrangement of kinks. Re-pinning occurs more smoothly, through the successive disappearance of different travelling defects. The resulting bistability and multistability regions may also be explored by varying mechanical parameters other than F_ext, e.g. the sliding velocity or the corrugation amplitude of the sliders.
