Abstract
Stretched-exponential distributions and relaxation responses are encountered in a wide range of physical systems such as glasses, polymers, and spin glasses. As found recently, this type of behavior occurs also for the distribution function of a certain trap time in a number of coupled dynamical systems. We analyze a one-dimensional mathematical model of coupled chaotic oscillators that reproduces an experimental setup of coupled diode resonators and identify the necessary ingredients for stretched-exponential distributions.
