Abstract
A discontinuous and noninvertible circle map is introduced to describe modulated relaxation oscillators. The boundaries of the parameter reg ions are calculated where images of the jumping gap completely cover t he noninvertible region so that the dynamics of the system are abruptl y changed. We show that a kind of structure called a ''hole'' may appe ar due to the interaction between these two competing characteristics and may lead to some dynamic features. The influence of the holes on t he boundaries of Arnold tongues is also discussed.
