Abstract
We study the effect of multiplicative noise in dynamical flows arising from the coupling of stochastic processes with intrinsic noise. Situations wherein such systems arise naturally are in chemical or biological oscillators that are coupled to each other in a drive-response configuration. Above a coupling threshold we find that there is a strong correlation between the drive and the response: This is a stochastic analog of the phenomenon of generalised synchronization. Since the dynamical fluctuations are large when there is intrinsic noise, it is necessary to employ measures that are sensitive to correlations between the variables of drive and the response, the permutation entropy, or the mutual information in order to detect the transition to generalized synchrony in such systems.
