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…

Nonlocally coupled oscillator systems can exhibit an exotic spatiotemporal structure called chimera, where the system splits into two groups of oscillators with sharp boundaries, one of which is phase-locked and the other is…

Chimera states, which consist of coexisting domains of spatially coherent and incoherent dynamics, have been widely found in nonlocally coupled oscillatory systems. We demonstrate for the first time that chimera states can emerge from…

Chimera states in the systems of nonlocally coupled phase oscillators are considered stable in the continuous limit of spatially distributed oscillators. However, it is reported that in the numerical simulations without taking such limit,…

We obtain experimental chimera states in the minimal network of three identical mechanical oscillators (metronomes), by introducing phase-lagged all-to-all coupling. For this, we have developed a real-time model-in-the-loop coupling…

Chimera states occur in networks of coupled oscillators, and are characterized by having some fraction of the oscillators perfectly synchronized, while the remainder are desynchronized. Most chimera states have been observed in networks of…

We report the emergence of peculiar chimera states in networks of identical pendula with global phase-lagged coupling. The states reported include both rotating and quiescent modes, i.e. with non-zero and zero average frequencies. This kind…

Chimera states consisting of domains of coherently and incoherently oscillating nonlocally-coupled phase oscillators in systems with spatial inhomogeneity are studied. The inhomogeneity is introduced through the dependence of the oscillator…

We investigate "chimera" states in a ring of identical phase oscillators coupled in a time-delayed and spatially non-local fashion. We find novel "clustered chimera" states that have spatially distributed phase coherence separated by…

Arrays of identical oscillators can display a remarkable spatiotemporal pattern in which phase-locked oscillators coexist with drifting ones. Discovered two years ago, such "chimera states" are believed to be impossible for locally or…
