System Size Resonance in Coupled Noisy Systems and in the Ising Model

Abstract: We consider an ensemble of coupled nonlinear noisy oscillators demonstrating in the thermodynamic limit an Ising-type transition. In the ordered phase and for finite ensembles stochastic flips of the mean field are observed with the rate depending on the ensemble size. When a small periodic force acts on the ensemble, the linear response of the system has a maximum at a certain system size, similar to the stochastic resonance phenomenon. We demonstrate this effect of system size resonance for different types o… Show more

“…A related result [18] shows that even in the absence of external forcing, the regularity of the collective firing of a set of coupled excitable FitzHughNagumo units results optimal for a given value of the number of elements. From a physical system point of view, the same phenomenon -that has been called system size stochastic resonance (SSSR)-has also been found in an Ising model as well as in a set of globally coupled units described by a φ 4 theory [19]. It was even shown to arise in opinion formation models [20].…”

“…Even those cases discussed in [19] could be described within this same framework, and the ("effective") scaling of the noise with the system's size could be clearly seen. Here, we discuss in more detail the cases analyzed in [21] and present a new interesting one, corresponding to the study of SSSR in a system that also shows noise induced patterns, the same one studied in [15].…”

“…This approach was recently introduced experimentally in B. subtilis [17], and has been subsequently used in E. coli as well [18]. From the theoretical side, system-size effects have been seen to lead to stochastic-resonance [19,20] and stochastic-coherence [21] effect through their control of the effective noise intensity perceived by the system.…”
