We study the emergent behavior of a second-order Kuramoto-type model with frustration effect on a strongly connected digraph. The main challenge arises from the lack of symmetry in this system, which renders standard approaches for…

We consider a variant of the Kuramoto model, in which all the oscillators are now assumed to have the same natural frequency, but some of them are negatively coupled to the mean field. These "contrarian" oscillators tend to align in…

The Kuramoto model was recently extended to arbitrary dimensions by reinterpreting the oscillators as particles moving on the surface of unit spheres in a D-dimensional space. Each particle is then represented by a D-dimensional unit…

Kuramoto model is one of the most prominent models for the synchronization of coupled oscillators. It has long been a research hotspot to understand how natural frequencies, the interaction between oscillators, and network topology…

A generalized Kuramoto model of coupled phase oscillators with slowly varying coupling matrix is studied. The dynamics of the coupling coefficients is driven by the phase difference of pairs of oscillators in such a way that the coupling…

Spontaneous synchronization is a remarkable collective effect observed in nature, whereby a population of oscillating units, which have diverse natural frequencies and are in weak interaction with one another, evolves to spontaneously…

Motivated by recent interest for multi-agent systems and smart power grid architectures, we discuss the synchronization problem for the network-reduced model of a power system with non-trivial transfer conductances. Our key insight is to…

We investigate the role of inertia in the asynchronous state of a disordered Kuramoto model. We extend an iterative simulation scheme to the case of the Kuramoto model with inertia in order to determine the self-consistent fluctuation…

We generalize the Kuramoto model for coupled phase oscillators by allowing the frequencies to drift in time according to Ornstein-Uhlenbeck dynamics. Such drifting frequencies were recently measured in cellular populations of circadian…

We study a population of swarmalators (swarming/mobile oscillators) which run on a ring and are subject to random pinning. The pinning represents the tendency of particles to stick to defects in the underlying medium which competes with the…

We study the synchronization of a small-world network of identical coupled phase oscillators with Kuramoto interaction. First, we consider the model with instantaneous mutual interaction and the normalized coupling constant to the degree of…

We study a Kuramoto-Vicsek model of self-propelled particles with periodic boundary conditions subject to a constant angular tilt and a confining potential, and its mean-field (Fokker-Planck) behaviour. In the absence of confinement, the…

We introduce a generalization of the Kuramoto model by explicit consideration of time-dependent parameters. The oscillators' natural frequencies and/or couplings are supposed to be influenced by external, time-dependant fields, with…

A family of stochastic processes has quasi-cycle oscillations if the oscillations are sustained by noise. For such a family we define a Kuramoto-type coupling of both phase and amplitude processes. We find that synchronization, as measured…

Despite being under intense scrutiny for 50 years, the Kuramoto oscillator model has remained a quintessential representative of non-equilibrium phase transitions. One of the reasons for its enduring relevance is the apparent lack of an…
