Enhancement of induced synchronization by transient uncoupling in coupled simple chaotic systems

In this paper, we report the enhanced stability of induced synchronization by transient uncoupling observed in certain unidirectionally coupled second-order chaotic systems. The stability of synchronization observed in the coupled systems subjected to transient uncoupling is analyzed using the {\emph{Master Stability Function}}. The existence of the coupled systems in stable synchronized states over a certain range of the clipping fraction of the driven system is identified. The enhanced stable synchronized states are obtained for fixed values of clipping fraction in certain second-order chaotic systems. The two-parameter bifurcation diagram indicating the parameter regions over which stable synchronization occurs is presented. The negative eigenvalue regions of the driven system enabling induced synchronization is studied for all the systems. The enhancement of synchronization through transient uncoupling observed in coupled second-order non-autonomous chaotic systems is reported in the literature for the first time.
