Chimera states in coupled oscillator systems present both spatially coherent and incoherent domains. The number and size of these domains depend on many factors like the system parameters and initial conditions. Systematic investigations of…

Partial, frustrated synchronization and chimera-like states are expected to occur in Kuramoto-like models if the spectral dimension of the underlying graph is low: $d_s < 4$. We provide numerical evidence that this really happens in case of…
