Coupling effects on energy transduction in coupled polymer chains with perturbation of noise.

Noise-assistant transduction was investigated in coupled polymer chains where one subsystem was exposed to environment noise. It was found that coupling could transfer oscillation from one subsystem disturbed by noise to the other not disturbed by noise and play a role of a noise filtering for the other. Then, a sort of coupling-induced synchronization was investigated as a function of noise intensity and coupling strength. In particular, we calculated the minimum coupling strength to reach synchronization and pointed out that noise dominated at small coupling strength, otherwise, coupling dominated.
