要旨

We investigate the distribution of mixed-mode oscillations in the control parameter space for two paradigmatic chemical models: a three-variable fourteen-parameter model of the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction and a three-variable four-parameter autocatalator. For both systems, several high-resolution phase diagrams show that the number of spikes of their mixed-mode oscillations emerges consistently organized in a surprising and unexpected symmetrical way, forming Stern–Brocot trees. The Stern–Brocot tree is more general and contains the Farey tree as a subtree. We conjecture the Stern–Brocot hierarchical organization to be the archetypal skeleton underlying several systems displaying mixed-mode oscillations.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
