On the synchronization of identically driven chaotic systems

In the present work we discuss the behavior of equally driven chaotic systems, discussing first the statistics of trajectory separation in these systems. An interesting situation is the coexistence of driving signals that, although they do not yield synchronization separately, do yield this behavior when combined. These studies are carried out in the context of a generalization of a recently introduced driving synchronization method [J. Guemez, M.A. Matias, Phys. Rev. E 52 (1995) R2145] that may be more realistic having in mind some applications. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
