Control of noise-induced oscillations in superlattices — •Johanne Hizanidis, Alexander Balanov, Andreas Amann, and Eckehard Schöll — Institut für Theoretische Physik, TU Berlin, Hardenbergstr. 36, 10623 Berlin

Superlattices are spatially extended systems with complex dynamics of interacting fronts [1]. We consider noise-induced dynamics of a superlattice below the Hopf bifurcation, where in the absence of noise the system exhibits a fixed point. We show that delayed feedback control that was previously used for manipulation of noise-induced oscillations in systems without spatial degrees of freedom [2], can not only enhance or deteriorate the regularity of stochastic spatio-temporal motion but also allows the manipulation of the system’s timescales with varying time delay.
