We consider the fundamental problem of clock synchronization in a synchronous multi-agent system. Each agent holds a clock with an arbitrary initial value, and clocks must eventually indicate the same value. Previous algorithms worked in…
In this work we investigate time varying networks with complex dynamics at the nodes. We consider two scenarios of network change in an interval of time: first, we have the case where each link can change with probability pt, i.e. the…

Synchronisation and pattern formation have been intensely addressed for systems evolving on static networks. Extending the study to include the inherent ability of the network to adjust over time proved cumbersome and led to conclusions…
Group synchronization arises when two or more synchronization patterns coexist in a network formed of oscillators of different types, with the systems in each group synchronizing on the same time-evolution, but systems in different groups…

Synchronization plays a fundamental role in healthy cognitive and motor function. However, how synchronization depends on the interplay between local dynamics, coupling and topology and how prone to synchronization a network with given…

Many real networks have been found to have a rich degree of symmetry, which is a very important structural property of complex network, yet has been rarely studied so far. And where does symmetry comes from has not been explained. To…
