Abstract

We consider a chain of nonlinear oscillators with long-range interaction of the type 1/l^{1+alpha}, where l is a distance between oscillators and 0< alpha <2. In the continues limit the system's dynamics is described by the Ginzburg-Landau equation with complex coefficients. Such a system has a new parameter alpha that is responsible for the complexity of the medium and that strongly influences possible regimes of the dynamics. We study different spatial-temporal patterns of the dynamics depending on alpha and show transitions from synchronization of the motion to broad-spectrum oscillations and to chaos.
