Abstract
Populations of uncoupled limit-cycle oscillators receiving common random impulses show various types of phase-coherent states, which are characterized by the distribution of phase differences between pairs of oscillators. We develop a theory to predict the stationary distribution of pairwise phase differences from the phase response curve, which quantitatively encapsulates the oscillator dynamics, via averaging of the Frobenius-Perron equation describing the impulse-driven oscillators. The validity of our theory is confirmed by direct numerical simulations using the FitzHugh-Nagumo neural oscillator receiving common Poisson impulses as an example.
