title: Amplitude death in time-delay nonlinear oscillators coupled by diffusive connections.
abstract: This paper analyzes the stability of the amplitude death phenomenon that occurs in a pair of scalar time-delay nonlinear oscillators coupled by static, dynamic, and delayed connections. Stability analysis shows that static connections never induce death in time-delay oscillators. Further, for the case of dynamic and delayed connections, a simple instability condition under which death never occurs is derived. A systematic procedure for estimating the boundary curves of death regions is also provided. These analytical results are then verified by electronic circuit experiments.
