Published: September 2005

We show the standard two-level continuous-time model of loss-modulated CO2 lasers to display the same regular network of self-similar stability islands known so far to be typically present only in discrete-time models based on mappings. Our results suggest that the two-parameter space of class B laser models and that of a certain class of discrete mappings could be isomorphic.

Stochastic disturbances and spikes (sudden sharp fluctuations of any system parameter), commonly observed among natural and laboratory-scale systems, can perturb the multistable dynamics significantly and become a serious impediment when the device is designed for a certain dynamical behavior. We experimentally demonstrate that suitable periodic modulation of any system parameter may efficiently control such stochastic multistability related problems. The control mechanism is verified individually with two standard models (namely, an analog circuit of Lorenz equations and a cavity-loss modulated CO2 laser), against three externally introduced disturbing signals, (namely, white Gaussian noise, pink noise, and train of spikes).

In multistable regimes, noise can create "multistate hopping intermittency," i.e., intermittent transitions among coexisting stable attractors.

Phase scaling relations for the onsets of both saddle-node bifurcations and boundary crises induced by resonant periodic perturbations at subharmonic frequencies are found in a period-doubled system from the results of numerical simulation. These phase dependences determine the domains of existence of induced attractors in (bifurcation parameter, perturbation phase) parameter space. The overlapping of these domains leads to the formation of zones with different numbers of coexisting attractors.
