Stochastic sensitivity analysis of nonautonomous nonlinear systems subjected to Poisson white noise

The stochastic sensitivity function (SSF) method is extended to estimate the stationary probability distribution around periodic attractors of nonautonomous nonlinear dynamical systems subjected to Poisson white noise in this paper. After deriving the stochastic sensitivity functions of period-N cycle of mapping systems based on the characteristic of Poisson process, non-autonomous dynamical systems around periodic attractors are converted to mapping systems by constructing a stroboscopic map, and then the stochastic sensitivity functions of periodic attractors of nonautonomous nonlinear systems can be obtained by adopting the results of mapping systems. It is found that the stochastic sensitivity functions depend on the product of noise intensity and the arrival rate of Poisson processes. To illustrate the validity of the proposed method, a Henon map driven by Poisson processes and a Mathieu-Duffing oscillator under Poisson white noise are studied.
