Synchronizing spatio-temporal chaos with imperfect models: a stochastic surface growth picture

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study the synchronization of two spatially extended dynamical systems where the models have imperfections. We show that the synchronization error across space can be visualized as a rough surface governed by the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation with both upper and lower bounding walls corresponding to nonlinearities and model discrepancies, respectively. Two types of model imperfections are considered: parameter mismatch and unresolved fast scales, finding in both cases the same qualitative results. The consistency between different setups and systems indicates the results are generic for a wide family of spatially extended systems.
