In this work, we have characterized changes in the dynamics of a
two-dimensional relativistic standard map in the presence of dissipation and
specially when it is submitted to thermal effects modeled by a Gaussian noise
reservoir. By the addition of thermal noise in the dissipative relativistic
standard map (DRSM) it is possible to suppress typical stable periodic
structures (SPSs) embedded in the chaotic domains of parameter space for large
enough temperature strengths. Smaller SPSs are first affected by thermal
effects, starting from their borders, as a function of temperature. To estimate
the necessary temperature strength capable to destroy those SPSs we use the
largest Lyapunov exponent to obtain the critical temperature (TC​) diagrams.
For critical temperatures the chaotic behavior takes place with the suppression
of periodic motion, although, the temperature strengths considered in this work
are not so large to convert the deterministic features of the underlying system
into a stochastic ones.Comment: 8 pages and 7 figures, accepted to publication in EPJ
