Pattern formation and competition in nonlinear optics

FT Arecchi, S Boccaletti, PL Ramazza - Physics Reports, 1999 - Elsevier
Pattern formation and competition occur in a nonlinear extended medium if dissipation
allows for attracting sets, independently of initial and boundary conditions. This intrinsic …

Two-dimensional representation of a delayed dynamical system

FT Arecchi, G Giacomelli, A Lapucci, R Meucci - Physical Review A, 1992 - APS
A nonlinear system with delayed feedback, whenever the delay time is much longer than the
intrinsic correlation time, displays two widely separated time scales. In such a case, a two …

Synchronization of homoclinic chaos

E Allaria, FT Arecchi, A Di Garbo, R Meucci - Physical Review Letters, 2001 - APS
Homoclinic chaos is characterized by regular geometric orbits occurring at erratic times.
Phase synchronization at the average repetition frequency is achieved by a tiny periodic …

Instabilities in a semiconductor laser with delayed optoelectronic feedback

G Giacomelli, M Calzavara, FT Arecchi - Optics communications, 1989 - Elsevier
A single mode CW semiconductor laser with an optoelectronic feedback gives a modulated
output, with a sharp frequency peak depending on the feedback delay. A theoretical model …

Dynamics of a laser with delayed feedback: The short-delay regime

FT Arecchi, G Giacomelli, A Lapucci, R Meucci - Physical Review A, 1991 - APS
We present an experimental and theoretical study of the dynamics of a CO 2 laser with
delayed feedback. Working with a delay time such that its product with the bandwidth of the …

Theoretical and experimental study of discrete behavior of Shilnikov chaos in a CO 2 laser

AN Pisarchik, R Meucci, FT Arecchi - The European Physical Journal D …, 2001 - Springer
The discrete distribution of homoclinic orbits has been investigated numerically and
experimentally in a CO 2 laser with feedback. The narrow chaotic ranges appear …

Rotational multipetal waves in optical system with 2D feedback

AV Razgulin - Chaos in optics, 1993 - spiedigitallibrary.org
The nonlinear distributed optical system with rotation in 2-D feedback contour is considered.
A particular case of rotational multi-petal waves is described by bifurcational periodic …

Homoclinic chaos in a laser containing a saturable absorber

M Lefranc, D Hennequin, D Dangoisse - JOSA B, 1991 - opg.optica.org
Checks of homoclinic chaos made with nonlinear analysis techniques have been performed
on the signals coming from a CO_2 laser containing CH_3I as a saturable absorber. The …

Discrete homoclinic orbits in a laser with feedback

AN Pisarchik, R Meucci, FT Arecchi - Physical Review E, 2000 - APS
We provide experimental evidence of the discrete character of homoclinic chaos in a laser
with feedback. We show that the narrow chaotic windows are distributed exponentially as a …

Synchronization in coupled cells with activator-inhibitor pathways

S Rajesh, S Sinha, S Sinha - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and …, 2007 - APS
The functional dynamics exhibited by cell collectives are fascinating examples of robust,
synchronized, collective behavior in spatially extended biological systems. To investigate …
