Emergence of extreme events in a quasi-periodic oscillator

Abstract

Extreme events are unusual and rare large-amplitude fluctuations that occur can unexpectedly in nonlinear dynamical systems. Events above the extreme event threshold of the probability distribution of a nonlinear process characterize extreme events. Different mechanisms for the generation of extreme events and their prediction measures have been reported in the literature. Based on the properties of extreme events, such as rare in frequency of occurrence and extreme in amplitude, various studies have shown that extreme events are both linear and nonlinear in nature. Interestingly, in this work, we report on a special class of extreme events which are nonchaotic and nonperiodic. These nonchaotic extreme events appear in between the quasi-periodic and chaotic dynamics of the system. We report the existence of such extreme events with various statistical measures and characterization techniques.
