Synchronization among autonomous agents via local interactions is one of the benchmark problems in multi-agent control. Whereas synchronization algorithms for identical agents have been thoroughly studied, synchronization of heterogeneous…
The ``Pulse Synchronization'' problem can be loosely described as targeting to invoke a recurring distributed event as simultaneously as possible at the different nodes and with a frequency that is as regular as possible. This target…
We present an approach which enables to identify phase synchronization in coupled chaotic oscillators without having to explicitly measure the phase. We show that if one defines a typical event in one oscillator and then observes another…
In-phase synchronization is a special case of synchronous behavior when coupled oscillators have the same phases for any time moments. Such behavior appears naturally for nearly identical coupled limit-cycle oscillators when the coupling…
We study synchronization of nonlinear systems that satisfy an incremental passivity property. We consider the case where the control input is subject to a class of disturbances, including constant and sinusoidal disturbances with unknown…
Networks of coupled LC oscillators that do not share a common ground node are studied. Both resistive coupling and inductive coupling are considered. For networks under resistive coupling, it is shown that the oscillator-coupler…
Synchronization is a hallmark of collective behavior that emerges when nonlinear systems interact, spanning scales from mechanical oscillators to planetary orbits. As a universal phenomenon it underpins the study of complex systems and has…
Cryptographic signatures can be used to increase the resilience of distributed systems against adversarial attacks, by increasing the number of faulty parties that can be tolerated. While this is well-studied for consensus, it has been…

Synchronization by exchange of pulses is a widespread phenomenon, observed in flashing fireflies, applauding audiences and the neuronal network of the brain. Hitherto the focus has been on integrate-and-fire oscillators. Here we consider…
In this paper, we study a system of two Rossler oscillators coupled through a time-varying link, periodically switching between two values. We analyze the system behavior with respect to the frequency of the switching. By applying an…

The collective behavior of biological oscillators has been recognized as an important problem for several decades, but its control has come into limelight only recently. Much of the focus for control has been on desynchronization of an…
We study the synchronization phenomena in a system of globally coupled oscillators with time delay in the coupling. The self-consistency equations for the order parameter are derived, which depend explicitly on the amount of delay. Analysis…
We analyze the interplay of synchronization and structure evolution in an evolving network of phase oscillators. An initially random network is adaptively rewired according to the dynamical coherence of the oscillators, in order to enhance…
