We investigate the basin of attraction properties and its boundaries for chimera states in a circulant network of H\'enon maps. Chimera states, for which coherent and incoherent domains coexist, emerge as a consequence of the coexistence of…
An ensemble of nonlocally coupled excitable FitzHugh-Nagumo systems is studied. In the presence of noise the explored system can exhibit a special kind of chimera states called coherence-resonance chimera. As previously thought, noise plays…

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…

The simplest network of coupled phase-oscillators exhibiting chimera states is given by two populations with disparate intra- and inter-population coupling strengths. We explore the effects of heterogeneous coupling phase-lags between the…
Chimera states, which consist of coexisting domains of coherent and incoherent parts, have been observed in a variety of systems. Most of previous works on chimera states have taken into account specific form of interaction between…
Chimera referring to a coexistence of coherent and incoherent states, is traditionally very difficult to control due to its peculiar nature. Here, we provide a recipe to construct chimera states in the multiplex networks with the aid of…
We present a control scheme that is able to find and stabilize an unstable chaotic regime in a system with a large number of interacting particles. This allows us to track a high dimensional chaotic attractor through a bifurcation where it…
The chimera state with co-existing coherent-incoherent dynamics has recently attracted a lot of attention due to its wide applicability. We investigate non-locally coupled identical chaotic maps with delayed interactions in the multiplex…
Chimera states, representing a spontaneous break-up of a population of identical oscillators that are identically coupled, into sub-populations displaying synchronized and desynchronized behavior, have traditionally been found to exist in…
Study of collective phenomenon in populations of coupled oscillators are a subject of intense exploration in physical, biological, neuronal and social systems. Here we propose a scheme for the creation of chimera states, namely the…
The synchronization of self-propelled particles (SPPs) is a fascinating instance of emergent behavior in living and man-made systems, such as colonies of bacteria, flocks of birds, robot ensembles, and many others. The recent discovery of…
Understanding and controlling the mechanisms behind synchronization phenomena is of paramount importance in nonlinear science. In particular, the emergence of chimera states, patterns in which order and disorder coexist simultaneously,…
Chimera state is a recently discovered dynamical phenomenon in arrays of nonlocally coupled oscillators, that displays a self-organized spatial pattern of co-existing coherence and incoherence. We discuss the appearance of the chimera…
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…
