Spontaneous synchronization is a remarkable collective effect observed in nature, whereby a population of oscillating units, which have diverse natural frequencies and are in weak interaction with one another, evolves to spontaneously…

We consider a toy model of two kinetically coupled stochastic oscillators whose dynamics is described as a Markov jump process among $N$ discrete phase states. For large $N$, it maps onto the deterministic two-oscillator Kuramoto model of…

Complex networks often possess communities defined based on network connectivity. When dynamics undergo in a network, one can also consider dynamical communities; i.e., a group of nodes displaying a similar dynamical process. We have…
