Response to an external field of a generalized Langevin equation with stochastic resetting of the memory kernel.

Abstract

We study a generalized Langevin equation framework that incorporates stochastic resetting of a truncation power-law memory kernel. The inclusion of stochastic resetting enables the emergence of resonance phenomena even in parameter regimes where conventional settings (without resetting) do not exhibit such behavior. Specifically, we explore the response of the system to an external field under three scenarios: (i) a free particle, (ii) a particle in a harmonic potential, and (iii) the effect of truncation in the memory kernel. In each case, the primary focus is on understanding how the resetting mechanism interacts with standard parameters to induce stochastic resonance. In addition, we explore the effect of resetting on the dielectric loss.
