Abstract

We modify the spin-flip dynamics of a Curie-Weiss model with dissipative interaction potential [7] by adding a site-dependent i.i.d. random magnetic field. The purpose is to analyze how the addition of the field affects the time-evolution of the observables in the macroscopic limit. Our main result shows that a Bautin bifurcation point exists and that, whenever the field intensity is sufficiently strong and the temperature sufficiently low, a periodic orbit emerges through a global bifurcation in the phase space, giving origin to a large-amplitude rhythmic behavior.
