Disorder is often seen as detrimental to collective dynamics, yet recent work has shown that heterogeneity can enhance network synchronization. However, its constructive role in stabilizing nontrivial cooperative patterns remains largely…
We study rare phase slips due to noise in synchronized Kuramoto oscillator networks. In the small-noise limit, we demonstrate that slips occur via large fluctuations to saddle phase-locked states. For tree topologies, slips appear between…
