We analyze synchronization between two interacting populations of different phase oscillators. For the important case of asymmetric coupling functions, we find a much richer dynamical behavior compared to that of symmetrically coupled…
Swarmalators are entities that swarm through space and sync in time and are potentially considered to replicate the complex dynamics of many real-world systems. So far, the internal dynamics of swarmalators have been taken as a phase…
The understanding of synchronization ranging from natural to social systems has driven the interests of scientists from different disciplines. Here, we have investigated the synchronization dynamics of the Kuramoto dynamics departing from…
We investigate the effects of delayed interactions in a population of ``swarmalators", generalizations of phase oscillators that both synchronize in time and swarm through space. We discover two steady collective states: a state in which…
Common models of synchronizable oscillatory systems consist of a collection of coupled oscillators governed by a collection of differential equations. The ubiquitous Kuramoto models rely on an {\em a priori} fixed connectivity pattern…
Imagine a group of oscillators, each endowed with their own rhythm or frequency, be it the ticking of a biological clock, the swing of a pendulum, or the glowing of fireflies. While these individual oscillators may seem independent of one…
Coupled oscillators have been used to study synchronization in a wide range of social, biological, and physical systems, including pedestrian-induced bridge resonances, coordinated lighting up of firefly swarms, and enhanced output peak…
Synchronization of an ensemble of oscillators is an emergent phenomenon present in several complex systems, ranging from social and physical to biological and technological systems. The most successful approach to describe how coherent…
Systems of mobile physical entities exchanging information with their neighborhood can be found in many different situations. The understanding of their emergent cooperative behaviour has become an important issue across disciplines,…
We study a simple model of identical swarmalators, generalizations of phases oscillators that swarm through space. We confine the movements to a one-dimensional (1D) ring and consider distributed (non-identical) couplings; the combination…
We study the emergent behaviors of a population of swarming coupled oscillators, dubbed 'swarmalators'. Previous work considered the simplest, idealized case: identical swarmalators with global coupling. Here we expand this work by adding…
Populations of oscillators are present throughout nature. Very often synchronization is observed in such populations if they are allowed to interact. A paradigmatic model for the study of such phenomena has been the Kuramoto model. However,…
Swarmalators are phase oscillators that cluster in space, like fireflies flashing on a swarm to attract mates. Interactions between particles, which tend to synchronize their phases and align their motion, decrease with the distance and…
The synchronization of coupled oscillators is a fascinating manifestation of self-organization that nature employs to orchestrate essential processes of life, such as the beating of the heart. Although it was long thought that synchrony or…
We study synchronization of Kuramoto oscillators in strongly modular networks in which the structure of the network inside each community is averaged. We find that the dynamics of the interacting communities can be described as an ensemble…
Swarmalators have emerged as a new paradigm for dynamical collective behavior of multi-agent systems due to the interplay of synchronization and swarming that they inherently incorporate. Their dynamics have been explored with different…
The synchronization phenomenon is ubiquitous in nature. In ensembles of coupled oscillators, explosive synchronization is a particular type of transition to phase synchrony that is first-order as the coupling strength increases. Explosive…
We study the collective behavior of swarmalators, generalizations of phase oscillators that both sync and swarm, confined to move on a 1D ring. This simple model captures some of the essence of movement in 2D or 3D but has the benefit of…
By means of numerical analysis conducted with the aid of the computer, the collective synchronization of coupled phase oscillators in the Kuramoto model in the connected regime of random networks of various sizes is studied. The oscillators…
Synchronization is a universal phenomenon found in many non-equilibrium systems. Much recent interest in this area has overlapped with the study of complex networks, where a major focus is determining how a system's connectivity patterns…
