Local repulsive coupling tend to a desynchronize ensembles of globally coupled oscillators, but when the repulsive coupling is nonlocal, multi-cluster chimeras can result. In this case, several groups of synchronized oscillators (the…

When identical oscillators are coupled together in a network, dynamical steady states are often assumed to reflect network symmetries. Here we show that alternative persistent states may also exist that break the symmetries of the…

We demonstrate that chimera behavior can be observed in small networks consisting of three identical oscillators, with mutual all-to-all coupling. Three different types of chimeras, characterized by the coexistence of two coherent…

Experimental realizations of chimera patterns, characterized by coexisting regions of phase coherence and incoherence, have so far only been achieved for non-conservative systems with dissipation. Moreover, theoretical studies of chimera…

Symmetry broken states arise naturally in oscillatory networks. In this Letter, we investigate chaotic attractors in an ensemble of four mean-coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators with two oscillators being synchronized. We report that these…

Chimera states are an example of intriguing partial synchronization patterns emerging in networks of identical oscillators. They consist of spatially coexisting domains of coherent (synchronized) and incoherent (desynchronized) dynamics. We…

Cluster synchronization is a phenomenon in which a network self-organizes into a pattern of synchronized sets. It has been shown that diverse patterns of stable cluster synchronization can be captured by symmetries of the network. Here we…

Frequency plays a crucial role in exhibiting various collective dynamics in the coexisting co- and counter-rotating (CR) systems. To illustrate the impact of CR frequencies, we consider a network of non-identical and globally coupled…

Chimera states arising in the classic Kuramoto system of two-dimensional phase coupled oscillators are transient but they are "long" transients in the sense that the average transient lifetime grows exponentially with the system size. For…

We propose a concept to generate and stabilize diverse partial synchronization patterns (phase clusters) in adaptive networks which are widespread in neuro- and social sciences, as well as biology, engineering, and other disciplines. We…

Yes! Very much so. A chimera state refers to the coexistence of a coherent-incoherent dynamical evolution of identically coupled oscillators. We investigate the impact of multiplexing of a lyer having repulsively coupled oscillators on…

Chimera states in one-dimensional nonlocally coupled phase oscillators are mostly assumed to be stationary, but breathing chimeras can occasionally appear, branching from the stationary chimeras via Hopf bifurcation. In this paper, we…
