We establish a unified synchronization framework for the all-to-all hybrid Kuramoto model that couples first- and second-order oscillators within a single dynamical system. Although the Kuramoto model has become one of the most widely used…

The Kuramoto model with higher-order interactions has recently been shown to exhibit bistability, explosive synchronization transitions, and rich collective dynamics. Existing analytical approaches, however, typically rely on all-to-all…

We study the synchronization properties of a generic networked dynamical system, and show that, under a suitable approximation, the transition to synchronization can be predicted with the only help of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the…

We consider systems that are well modelled as a networks that evolve in time, which we call {\it Moving Neighborhood Networks}. These models are relevant in studying cooperative behavior of swarms and other phenomena where emergent…

Suppose we are given a system of coupled oscillators on an unknown graph along with the trajectory of the system during some period. Can we predict whether the system will eventually synchronize? Even with a known underlying graph…

Adaptive (or co-evolutionary) network dynamics, i.e., when changes of the network/graph topology are coupled with changes in the node/vertex dynamics, can give rise to rich and complex dynamical behavior. Even though adaptivity can improve…

Rigorous conditions for cluster synchronization of Kuramoto oscillators are presented. The method of averaging plays an important role in stability analysis, but the standard Lyapunov's second method is not applicable due to the lack of…

The onset of synchronization in networks of networks is investigated. Specifically, we consider networks of interacting phase oscillators in which the set of oscillators is composed of several distinct populations. The oscillators in a…

Synchronisation and pattern formation have been intensely addressed for systems evolving on static networks. Extending the study to include the inherent ability of the network to adjust over time proved cumbersome and led to conclusions…

Adaptive Kuramoto models admit a variety of nontrivial phase-locked configurations, including antipodal and rotating-wave states. A central open question is whether the observed persistence of such configurations can be attributed to…

We study the synchronization transition (ST) of a modified Kuramoto model on two different types of modular complex networks. It is found that the ST depends on the type of inter-modular connections. For the network with decentralized…

We study systems of identical coupled oscillators introducing a distribution of delay times in the coupling. For arbitrary network topologies, we show that the frequency and stability of the fully synchronized states depend only on the mean…

We introduce the concept of synchronization bombs as large networks of coupled heterogeneous oscillators that operate in a bistable regime and abruptly transit from incoherence to phase-locking (or vice-versa) by adding (or removing) one or…

We analyze synchronization between two interacting populations of different phase oscillators. For the important case of asymmetric coupling functions, we find a much richer dynamical behavior compared to that of symmetrically coupled…
