In this paper, the relationship between the network synchronizability and the edge distribution of its associated graph is investigated. First, it is shown that adding one edge to a cycle definitely decreases the network sychronizability.…
We study synchronization and consensus in a group of dynamical systems coupled via multiple directed networks. We show that even though the coupling in a single network may not be sufficient to synchronize the systems, combination of…
We investigate the stability of synchronization in networks of dynamical systems with strongly delayed connections. We obtain strict conditions for synchronization of periodic and equilibrium solutions. In particular, we show the existence…
Heterogeneity in the degree (connectivity) distribution has been shown to suppress synchronization in networks of symmetrically coupled oscillators with uniform coupling strength (unweighted coupling). Here we uncover a condition for…
Most real-world networks display not only a heterogeneous distribution of degrees, but also a heterogeneous distribution of weights in the strengths of the connections. Each of these heterogeneities alone has been shown to suppress…
In this paper, the investigation is first motivated by showing two examples of simple regular symmetrical graphs, which have the same structural parameters, such as average distance, degree distribution and node betweenness centrality, but…
In many real-world networks the ability to synchronize is a key property for its performance. Examples include power-grid, sensor, and neuron networks as well as consensus formation. Recent work on undirected networks with diffusive…
The study of complex networks with multi-weights has been a hot topic recently. For a network with a single weight, previous studies have shown that they can promote synchronization. But for complex networks with multi-weights, there are no…
We consider the problem of accelerating distributed optimization in multi-agent networks by sequentially adding edges. Specifically, we extend the distributed dual averaging (DDA) subgradient algorithm to evolving networks of growing…
Dense networks with weighted connections often exhibit a community like structure, where although most nodes are connected to each other, different patterns of edge weights may emerge depending on each node's community membership. We…
The study of network synchronization has attracted increasing attention recently. In this paper, we strictly define a class of networks, namely effective networks, which are synchronizable and orientable networks. We can prove that all the…
We investigate the effects of structural perturbations of both, undirected and directed diffusive networks on their ability to synchronize. We establish a classification of directed links according to their impact on synchronizability. We…
We consider weighted coupled cell networks, that is networks where the interactions between any two cells have an associated weight that is a real valued number. Weighted networks are ubiquitous in real-world applications. We consider a…
Understanding efficient modifications to improve network functionality is a fundamental problem of scientific and industrial interest. We study the response of network dynamics against link modifications on a weakly connected directed graph…
Synchrony is one of the most common dynamical states emerging on networks. The speed of convergence towards synchrony provides a fundamental collective time scale for synchronizing systems. Here we study the asymptotic synchronization times…
This paper examines how weak synaptic coupling can achieve rapid synchronization in heterogeneous networks. The assumptions aim at capturing the key mathematical properties that make this possible for biophysical networks. In particular,…
We propose an adaptive control strategy for the simultaneous estimation of topology and synchronization in complex dynamical networks with unknown, time-varying topology. Our approach transforms the problem of time-varying topology…
We consider the fundamental problems of determining the rooted and global edge and vertex connectivities (and computing the corresponding cuts) in directed graphs. For rooted (and hence also global) edge connectivity with small integer…
Experimental studies of synchronization properties on networks with controlled connection topology can provide powerful insights into the physics of complex networks. Here, we report experimental results on the influence of connection…
In this paper, we aim to investigate the synchronization problem of dynamical systems, which can be of generic linear or Lipschitz nonlinear type, communicating over directed switching network topologies. A mild connectivity assumption on…
