Synchronization is a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature. Although it is necessary for the functioning of many systems, too much synchronization can also be detrimental, e.g., (partially) synchronized brain patterns support high-level cognitive…

Synchronization of coupled oscillators is observed in many natural and engineered systems and emerges due to the interactions within the system. It can be both beneficial, e.g., in power grids, and harmful, e.g., in epileptic seizures. In…

We study the synchronisation properties of the Kuramoto model of coupled phase oscillators on a general network. Here we distinguish the ability of such a system to self-synchronise from the stability of this behaviour. While…
