We study dynamics of phase-differences (PDs) of coupled oscillators where both the intrinsic frequencies and the couplings vary in time. In case the coupling coefficients are all nonnegative, we prove that the PDs are asymptotically stable…

We introduce the concept of synchronization bombs as large networks of coupled heterogeneous oscillators that operate in a bistable regime and abruptly transit from incoherence to phase-locking (or vice-versa) by adding (or removing) one or…

There are a number of models of coupled oscillator networks where the question of the stability of fixed points reduces to calculating the index of a graph Laplacian. Some examples of such models include the Kuramoto and Kuramoto--Sakaguchi…
