Synchronization of multi-frequency noise-induced oscillations.

Using a model system of FitzHugh-Nagumo type in the excitable regime, the similarity between synchronization of self-sustained and noise-induced oscillations is studied for the case of more than one main frequency in the spectrum. It is shown that this excitable system undergoes the same frequency lockings as a self-sustained quasiperiodic oscillator. The presence of noise-induced both stable and unstable limit cycles and tori, as well as their tangential bifurcations, are discussed. As the FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillator represents one of the basic neural models, the obtained results are of high importance for neuroscience.
