Synchronization is a universal phenomenon, seen in systems as diverse as superconducting Josephson junctions and discharging pacemaker cells. Here the elements have rhythmic state variables whose mutual influence promotes temporal order. A…

Swarmalators are oscillators that can swarm as well as sync via a dynamic balance between their spatial proximity and phase similarity. We present a generalized D-dimensional swarmalator model, which is more realistic and versatile, that…
The features of animal population dynamics, for instance, flocking and migration, are often synchronized for survival under large-scale climate change or perceived threats. These coherent phenomena have been explained using synchronization…
We investigate a population of swarmalators, a mobile version of phase oscillators that both sync in time and swarm through space. We focus on a XY-type model of identical swarmalators running on a one-dimensional ring and subject to…
We study a model of non-identical swarmalators, generalizations of phase oscillators that both sync in time and swarm in space. The model produces four collective states: asynchrony, sync clusters, vortex-like phase-waves, and a mixed…
We study a population of swarmalators (swarming/mobile oscillators) which run on a ring and are subject to random pinning. The pinning represents the tendency of particles to stick to defects in the underlying medium which competes with the…
A unified mathematical model for synchronisation and swarming has recently been proposed. Each system entity, called a "swarmalator", coordinates its internal phase and location with the other entities in a way that these two attributes are…
Similar to sperm, where individuals self-organize in space while also striving for coherence in their tail swinging, several natural and engineered systems exhibit the emergence of swarming and synchronization. The arising and interplay of…
Swarmalators are oscillators that swarm through space as they synchronize in time. Introduced a few years ago to model many systems which mix synchrony with self-assembly, they remain poorly understood theoretically. Here we obtain the…
Systems of oscillators whose internal phases and spatial dynamics are coupled, swarmalators, present diverse collective behaviors which in some cases lead to explosive synchronization in a finite population as a function of the coupling…

Synchronization is an omnipresent collective phenomenon in nature and technology, whose understanding is in particular for real-world systems still elusive. We study the synchronization transition in a phase oscillator system with two…
A fundamental understanding of synchronized behavior in multi-agent systems can be acquired by studying analytically tractable Kuramoto models. However, such models typically diverge from many real systems whose dynamics evolve under…
Swarmalators are oscillatory systems endowed with a spatial component, whose spatial and phase dynamics affect each other. Such systems can demonstrate fascinating collective dynamics resembling many real-world processes. Through this work,…
Swarlamators are particles capable of synchronize and swarm. Here we study the effects produced by an external periodic stimulus over a system of swarmalators that move in two dimensions. When the particles are fixed and interact with equal…
We study a simple one-dimensional model of swarmalators, a generalization of phase oscillators that swarm around in space as well as synchronize internal oscillations in time. Previous studies of the model focused on Kuramoto-type…

Spontaneous synchronization is a remarkable collective effect observed in nature, whereby a population of oscillating units, which have diverse natural frequencies and are in weak interaction with one another, evolves to spontaneously…
We study a Kuramoto-like model of coupled identical phase oscillators on a network, where attractive and repulsive couplings are balanced dynamically due to nonlinearity in interaction. Under a week force, an oscillator tends to follow the…
