Phase reduction of weakly perturbed limit cycle oscillations in time-delay systems

摘要

The phase reduction method is applied to a general class of weakly perturbed time-delay systems exhibiting periodic oscillations. The adjoint equation with an appropriate initial condition for the infinitesimal phase response curve of a time-delay system is derived. The method is demonstrated numerically for the Mackey-Glass equation as well as for a chaotic Rssler system subject to a delayed feedback control (DFC). We show that the profile of the phase response curve of a periodic orbit stabilized by the DFC algorithm does not depend on the control matrix. This property is universal and holds for any dynamical system subject to the DFC.
