In this paper, the linewidth of the van der Pol Oxcillator was calculated in random phase approximation for weak and strong pumping and also in the largen limit for all pumping.
Abstract
The linewidth of then component van der Pol Oxcillator is calculated in random phase approximation. Forn=2 this model describes a single mode laser. This approximation is asymptotically correct for weak and strong pumping and also in the largen limit for all pumping. The result is in good agreement with numerical results forn=2 in the whole range including the threshold. The corresponding vertex renormalized approximation on the other hand yields poor agreement and the wrong asymptotic value in the limit of strong pumping. The reason for this failure is discussed.

On a Lagrangean for classical field dynamics and renormalization group calculations of dynamical critical properties

TL;DR: In this paper, a Lagrangean for nonlinear stochastic processes is derived from the path probability density for classical field dynamics, which provides a convenient approach to the mode coupling equations and the renormalization group theory of critical dynamics.
