S. Kim et Le. Reichl, STOCHASTIC CHAOS AND RESONANCE IN A BISTABLE STOCHASTIC-SYSTEM, Physical review. E, Statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics, 53(4), 1996, pp. 3088-3095
We study a periodically driven bistable system in the presence of fluc
tuations. The spectral properties of the Fokker-Planck equation are st
udied using the finite element method. The ground Floquet state exhibi
ts stochastic resonance. The dynamics of the Fokker-Planck equation go
verning the system is equivalent to that of a quantum system governed
by an underlying Hamiltonian that can be obtained from the Fokker-Plan
ck equation. When the Hamiltonian system exhibits the transition to ch
aos, the decay rates of the Fokker-Planck equation show level repulsio
n.
