Triggering synchronized oscillations through arbitrarily weak diversity in close-to-threshold excitable media
Cristian Degli Esposti Boschi, Enrique Louis, Guillermo Ortega
Abstract
It is shown that arbitrarily weak (frozen) heterogeneity can induce global synchronized oscillations in excitable media close to threshold. The work is carried out on networks of coupled van der Pol-FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators. The result is shown to be robust against the presence of internal dynamical noise.
