Collective phase synchronization in locally-coupled limit-cycle oscillators

Statistical Mechanics 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

We study collective behavior of locally-coupled limit-cycle oscillators with scattered intrinsic frequencies on dd-dimensional lattices. A linear analysis shows that the system should be always desynchronized up to d=4d=4. On the other hand, numerical investigation for d=5d= 5 and 6 reveals the emergence of the synchronized (ordered) phase via a continuous transition from the fully random desynchronized phase. This demonstrates that the lower critical dimension for the phase synchronization in this system is dl=4d_{l}=4
