We study the mean field game problem for a nervous system consisting of a large number of neurons with mean-field interaction. In this system, each neuron can modulate its spiking activity by controlling its membrane potential to…

We study the emergent collective behaviors for an ensemble of identical Kuramoto oscillators under the effect of inertia. In the absence of inertial effects, it is well known that the generic initial Kuramoto ensemble relaxes to the…

Super-critical Kuramoto oscillators with distributed frequencies separate into two disjoint groups: an ordered one locked to the mean field, and a disordered one consisting of effectively decoupled oscillators -- at least so in the…

The emergence of synchrony essentially underlies the functionality of many systems across physics, biology and engineering. In all established synchronization phase transitions so far, a stable synchronous state is connected to a stable…

The objective of this paper is to analyze the existence of equilibria for a class of deterministic mean field games of controls. The interaction between players is due to both a congestion term and a price function which depends on the…

We study mean field games for large non--exchangeable populations with moderate local interactions and common noise. The finite--player system is driven by two complementary interaction mechanisms : a graphon--type structure, which encodes…

We study the onset of synchronization in square lattices of limit cycle oscillators with long-range coupling by means of numerical simulations of the Kuramoto model. In this regime the critical coupling strength depends on the system size…

The Kuramoto model is fundamental to the study of synchronization. It consists of a collection of oscillators with interactions given by a network, which we identify respectively with vertices and edges of a graph. In this paper, we show…

Many natural and social phenomena are characterized by synchronization. The Kuramoto model, taking into account the basic ingredients for observing synchronized states, allows to study mathematically synchronization in a simplified but…
