We study the critical behavior (CB) of all period $p$-tuplings $(p \!=\!2,3,4,\dots)$ in $N$ $(N \!=\! 2,3,4,\dots)$ symmetrically coupled one-dimensional maps. We first investigate the CB for the $N=2$ case of two coupled maps, using a…

We consider synchronization of coupled chaotic systems and propose an adaptive strategy that aims at evolving the strength of the coupling to achieve stability of the synchronized evolution. We test this idea in a simple configuration in…
This paper presents a framework for the study of convergence when the nodes' dynamics may be both piecewise smooth and/or nonidentical across the network. Specifically, we derive sufficient conditions for global convergence of all node…
Coupled map lattices of non-hyperbolic local maps arise naturally in many physical situations described by discretised reaction diffusion equations or discretised scalar field theories. As a prototype for these types of lattice dynamical…
We introduce an inhomogeneously-nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger lattice, featuring a defocusing segment, a focusing segment and a transitional interface between the two. We illustrate that such inhomogeneous settings present vastly different…

General hierarchical lattices of coupled maps are considered as dynamical systems. These models may describe many processes occurring in heterogeneous media with tree-like structures. The transition to turbulence via spatiotemporal…
