The transition to turbulence via spatiotemporal intermittency is investigated in the context of coupled maps defined on small-world networks. The local dynamics is given by the Chat\'e-Manneville minimal map previously used in studies of…
We analyze the asymptotic states in the partially ordered phase of a system of globally coupled logistic maps. We confirm that, regardless of initial conditions, these states consist of a few clusters, and they properly belong in the…
We study the dynamical states that emerge in a small-world network of recurrently coupled excitable neurons through both numerical and analytical methods. These dynamics depend in large part on the fraction of long-range connections or…
We consider a general model in which there is a coupled dynamics of node states and links states in a network. This coupled dynamics coevolves with dynamical changes of the topology of the network caused by a link rewiring mechanism. Such…
Stickiness is a well known phenomenon in which chaotic orbits expend an expressive amount of time in specific regions of the chaotic sea. This phenomenon becomes important when dealing with area-preserving open systems because, in this…
Initially, the logistic map became popular as a simplified model for population growth. In spite of its apparent simplicity, as the population growth-rate is increased the map exhibits a broad range of dynamics, which include bifurcation…
We investigate the stability of synchronization in networks of delay-coupled excitable neural oscillators. On the basis of the master stability function formalism, we demonstrate that synchronization is always stable for excitatory coupling…
The presence of one or more species at some spatial locations but not others is a central matter in ecology. This phenomenon is related to ecological pattern formation. Nonlocal interactions can be considered as one of the mechanisms…
