We study how a coupled array of spiking chaotic systems synchronizes to an external driving in a short time. Synchronization means spike separation at adjacent sites much shorter than the average inter-spike interval; a local lack of…
We examine synchronization of identical chaotic systems coupled in a drive/response manner. A rigorous criterion is presented which, if satisfied, guarantees that synchronization to the driving trajectory is linearly stable to…
