Description

We study synchronization due to noise and/or coupling in dynamical systems with multiple time scales. The challenge of taming nonuniformly hyperbolic structures is faced with non-standard geometric singular perturbation theory. An application focus is on biochemical oscillation reactions, with potential scope for wave fronts under noise.
