Synchronization and phase redistribution in self-replicating populations of coupled oscillators and excitable elements

Wen Yu, Kevin B. Wood

We study the dynamics of phase synchronization in growing populations of discrete phase oscillatory systems when the division process is coupled to the distribution of oscillator p…

Continuous and discontinuous phase transitions and partial synchronization in stochastic three-state oscillators

Kevin Wood, C. Van den Broeck, R. Kawai +1

We investigate both continuous (second-order) and discontinuous (first-order) transitions to macroscopic synchronization within a single class of discrete, stochastic (globally) ph…

Noise-induced phase transitions in field-dependent relaxational dynamics: The Gaussian ansatz

F. J. Cao, K. Wood, K. Lindenberg

We present an analytic mean field theory for relaxational dynamics in spatially extended systems that undergo purely noise-induced phase transitions to ordered states. The theory a…

Fluctuation theorem for entropy production during effusion of an ideal gas with momentum transfer

Kevin Wood, C. Van den Broeck, R. Kawai +1

We derive an exact expression for entropy production during effusion of an ideal gas driven by momentum transfer in addition to energy and particle flux. Following the treatment in…

Effects of Disorder on Synchronization of Discrete Phase-Coupled Oscillators

Kevin Wood, C. Van den Broeck, R. Kawai +1

We study synchronization in populations of phase-coupled stochastic three-state oscillators characterized by a distribution of transition rates. We present results on an exactly so…

Critical behavior and synchronization of discrete stochastic phase coupled oscillators

Kevin Wood, C. Van den Broeck, R. Kawai +1

Synchronization of stochastic phase-coupled oscillators is known to occur but difficult to characterize because sufficiently complete analytic work is not yet within our reach, and…
