We report on finite-sized-induced transitions to synchrony in a population of phase oscillators coupled via a nonlinear mean field, which microscopically is equivalent to a hypernetwork organization of interactions. Using a self-consistent…
Coupled oscillator networks often display transitions between qualitatively different phase-locked solutions -- such as synchrony and rotating wave solutions -- following perturbation or parameter variation. In the limit of weak coupling,…

Synchronization is an important dynamical phenomenon in coupled nonlinear systems, which has been studied extensively in recent years. However, analysis focused on individual orbits seems hard to extend to complex systems while a global…

Twisted states with non-zero winding numbers composed of sinusoidally coupled identical oscillators have been observed in a ring. The phase of each oscillator in these states constantly shifts, following its preceding neighbor in a…
