The study uses a nonlinear methodology to analyze the stability of a vertical cylindrical interface between two WF through porous media, concentrating on the impact of an axial uniform EF. The nonlinear methodology expresses the essential linear partial differential equations (PDEs) and implements the applicable nonlinear boundary conditions (BCs). This method produces a nonlinear distinguishing PDE. The non-perturbative approach (NPA) is employed to examine nonlinear stability. The main impartial of NPA is to transform a nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE) into a linear one. The NPA is differentiated from traditional perturbation techniques by its ability to precisely scrutinize the behavior of extremely nonlinear oscillators. This distinctive methodology is advanced by extending He's frequency formula (HFF) to orchestrate the movement of the interface. The study demonstrates that the structure stabilizes by elevating both the axial wavenumber and axial EF. It is found that the stability mechanism remains unchanged irrespective of whether the coefficients of the distinguishing ODE are real or complex. PolarPlots are generated independently for real and complex cases to grantee the impact of numerous variables and the effectiveness of the stability profile.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10340,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Physics","volume":"95 ","pages":"Pages 1018-1042"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143874503","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These higher-order features significantly influence the speed, scale, and pathways of propagation through synergistic reinforcement mechanisms. Based on existing complex propagation models, this study introduces the concept of “multiple infections” and constructs a universal representation method to quantify the importance of higher-order structures through the closure approximation of lower-order structures. The core innovation of this method lies in the introduction of an enhancement factor, which explicitly characterizes the nonlinear growth of propagation rates when infected nodes participate in higher-order interactions. Additionally, a probabilistic closure framework is proposed to transform the dynamic characteristics of higher-order structures into computable mathematical expressions, supporting the dimensionality reduction representation of higher-order structures at arbitrary scales. We specifically apply the proposed representation for quantifying the importance of higher-order structures to links and fully connected triplets (i.e., triangles), comparing it with existing metrics for link and triangle importance. By analyzing the degree of suppression of infection scale and complex propagation rates, the accuracy of identification, the efficiency of disrupting higher-order structures, and monotonicity, the superiority of the proposed quantification method is validated. The findings of this research contribute to a deeper understanding of the structural characteristics and dynamic behaviors of networks in the context of complex transmission. By introducing a generalized dynamic representation of higher-order structures, we provide researchers in fields such as network science, social network analysis, and transmission modeling with new insights and tools, thereby promoting further advancements in related areas and offering more reliable theoretical support for practical applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10340,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Physics","volume":"95 ","pages":"Pages 919-938"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143864342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research findings demonstrate that injecting any of these three types of coherence into the environment can enhance the non-Markovianity in dynamics and make it more easily activated as long as the parameters (including the magnitude and phase of coherence) are appropriately selected. When the intracollision strength is relatively small, manipulating the coherence embedded in the bath can induce successive transitions of the system's dynamics between Markovian and non-Markovian regimes.
