Synchronization commonly occurs in many natural and man-made systems, from neurons in the brain to cardiac cells to power grids to Josephson junction arrays. Transitions to or out of synchrony for coupled oscillators depend on several…

In this paper, we consider an $N$-oscillators complexified Kuramoto model. We first observe that there are solutions exhibiting finite-time blow-up behavior in all coupling regimes. When the coupling strength $\lambda>\lambda_c$, sufficient…

Suppose we are given a system of coupled oscillators on an unknown graph along with the trajectory of the system during some period. Can we predict whether the system will eventually synchronize? Even with a known underlying graph…

We consider the (noisy) Kuramoto model, that is a population of N oscillators, or rotators, with mean-field interaction. Each oscillator has its own randomly chosen natural frequency (quenched disorder) and it is stirred by Brownian motion.…
