We study collective behavior of locally-coupled limit-cycle oscillators with scattered intrinsic frequencies on $d$-dimensional lattices. A linear analysis shows that the system should be always desynchronized up to $d=4$. On the other…
We present an approach which enables to state about the existence of phase synchronization in coupled chaotic oscillators without having to measure the phase. This is done by observing the oscillators at special times, and analyzing whether…
We present a model of systems of cells with intracellular oscillators (`clocks'). This is motivated by examples from developmental biology and from the behavior of organisms on the threshold to multicellularity. Cells undergo random motion…

Gradient Clock Synchronization (GCS) is the task of minimizing the \emph{local skew,} i.e., the clock offset between neighboring clocks, in a larger network. While asymptotically optimal bounds are known, from a practical perspective they…
A number of biological rhythms originate from networks comprised of multiple cellular oscillators. But analytical results are still lacking on the collective oscillation period of inter-coupled gene regulatory oscillators, which, as has…
We consider models of identical pulse-coupled oscillators with global interactions. Previous work showed that under certain conditions such systems always end up in sync, but did not quantify how small clusters of synchronized oscillators…
The searching for the stable patterns in the evolution of cellular automata is implemented using stochastic synchronization between the present structures of the system and its precedent configurations. For most of the known evolution rules…
A model for synchronization of coupled Nakano's chaotic circuits is studied. The Nakano circuit consists of a simple RLC circuit with a switch voltage-depending reset rule which generates a discontinuous dynamics. Thus, the model that we…
