Since its discovery in 2002, the chimera state has frequently been described as a counter-intuitive, puzzling phenomenon. The Kuramoto model, in contrast, has become a celebrated paradigm useful for understanding a range of phenomena…

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…

The effect of phase-lag parameter in pairwise interactions has been a topic of great interest for long. However, real-world systems often have interactions that are beyond pairwise and can be modeled using simplicial complexes. We…
