We study properties of parameter-induced aperiodic stochastic resonance in the presence of asymmetric Lévy noise. The system performance is characterized by the bit error rate. Investigations are based on the numerical solution of the space-fractional Fokker–Planck equation and Monte Carlo...

A stochastic system with coupling between non-Gaussian and Gaussian noise terms is investigated. A general approximate Fokker–Planck equation of the system is derived through a path-integral approach. For a bistable system, the coupling λ between noise terms can induce the reentrance-like...

The effects of correlations between additive and multiplicative noises on the state variable correlation function of a bistable system driven by cross-correlated noises were studied. Applying an approximate Fokker–Planck equation to the system, the analytic expression for the state variable...

The mean work required to drive a bistable system from one equilibrium state to another is calculated by using a Langevin simulation combined with Monte Carlo sampling. The resulting work depends not only on the proposal form but also on the temperature, because the particle subjected to thermal...

The Marshallian Macroeconomic Model (MMM) developed by Veloce and Zellner (1985} provides a novel way to study sectoral dynamics of an economy in the presence of a dynamic entry/exit equation. Later extended by Zellner and Israilevich (2005} to include interactions between households, production...

This paper considers a simple pairwise random matching game in the society populated by two groups of agents: Conformists and Nonconformists. Depending on the relative frequencies of intergroup and intragroup matchings, the best response dynamics show three types of asymptotic behaviors: global...

A pairwise random matching game is considered to identify the social environments that give rise to the social custom and fashion cycles. The game, played by Conformists and Nonconformists, can generate a variety of socially stable behavior patterns. In the path-dependence case, Conformists set...

Unlike linear ones, nonlinear business cycle models can generate sustained fluctuations even in the absence of shocks (e.g., via limit cycles/chaos). A popular approach to solving nonlinear models is perturbation methods. I show that, as typically implemented, these methods are incapable of...

This article proves that periodic trajectories are generically impossible in a class of continuous-time growth models that allow a locally indeterminate steady state. Those models reducible to the two-dimensional Lotka-Volterra system of equations constitute the class considered here. Knowledge...

Backlash is one of several discontinuities found in different kinds of systems, it can be found in actuators of different types, such as mechanical and hydraulic, giving way to unwanted effects in the system behavior. PI loop shaping control design implementing a describing function to find the...
