Importance-sampling computation of statistical properties of coupled oscillators
Shamik Gupta, Jorge C. Leitao, Eduardo G. Altmann
We introduce and implement an importance-sampling Monte Carlo algorithm to study systems of globally-coupled oscillators. Our computational method efficiently obtains estimates of…
Importance Sampling of Rare Events in Chaotic Systems
Jorge C. Leitao, Joao M. Viana Parente Lopes, Eduardo G. Altmann
Finding and sampling rare trajectories in dynamical systems is a difficult computational task underlying numerous problems and applications. In this paper we show how to construct…
Searching chaotic saddles in high dimensions
M. Sala, J. C. Leitao, E. G. Altmann
We propose new methods to numerically approximate non-attracting sets governing transiently-chaotic systems. Trajectories starting in a vicinity of these sets escape in a f…
Efficiency of Monte Carlo Sampling in Chaotic Systems
Jorge C. Leitão, Eduardo G. Altmann, J. M. Viana Parente Lopes
In this paper we investigate how the complexity of chaotic phase spaces affect the efficiency of importance sampling Monte Carlo simulations. We focus on a flat-histogram simulatio…
Effect of noise in open chaotic billiards
Eduardo G. Altmann, Jorge C. Leitão, João Viana Lopes
We investigate the effect of white-noise perturbations on chaotic trajectories in open billiards. We focus on the temporal decay of the survival probability for generic mixed-phase…
