In this paper, we investigate the collective synchronization of system of coupled oscillators on Barab\'{a}si-Albert scale-free network. We propose an approach of structural perturbations aiming at those nodes with maximal betweenness. This…
The emergence of synchronization in a network of coupled oscillators is a pervasive topic in various scientific disciplines ranging from biology, physics, and chemistry to social networks and engineering applications. A coupled oscillator…
Hierarchy and centrality are two popular notions used to characterize the importance of entities in complex systems. Indeed, many complex systems exhibit a natural hierarchical structure, and centrality is a fundamental characteristic…
How does connectivity impact network dynamics? We address this question by linking network characteristics on two scales. On the global scale we consider the coherence of overall network dynamics. We show that such \emph{global coherence}…
The goal of is to study how increased variability in the degree distribution impacts the global connectivity properties of a large network. We approach this question by modeling the network as a uniform random graph with a given degree…
Due to time delays in signal transmission and processing, phase lags are inevitable in realistic complex oscillator networks. Conventional wisdom is that phase lags are detrimental to network synchronization. Here we show that judiciously…
Cluster synchronization in synthetic networks of coupled chaotic oscillators is investigated. It is found that despite the asymmetric nature of the network structure, a subset of the oscillators can be synchronized as a cluster while the…
We present an extended analysis, based on the dynamics towards synchronization of a system of coupled oscillators, of the hierarchy of communities in complex networks. In the synchronization process, different structures corresponding to…
Betweenness centrality lies at the core of both transport and structural vulnerability properties of complex networks, however, it is computationally costly, and its measurement for networks with millions of nodes is near impossible. By…
We examine numerically the three-way relationships among structure, Laplacian spectra and frequency synchronization dynamics on complex networks. We study the effects of clustering, degree distribution and a particular type of coupling…
The extension of the master stability function (MSF) to analyze stability of generalized synchronization for coupled nearly identical oscillators is discussed. The nearly identical nature of the coupled oscillators comes from some parameter…
The synchronization stability of a complex network system of coupled phase oscillators is discussed. In case the network is affected by disturbances, a stochastic linearized system of the coupled phase oscillators may be used to determine…
Traditional measures of closeness and betweenness centrality in networks rely on the shortest paths between nodes. Many standard metrics fail to accurately reflect the physical or probabilistic characteristics of nodal centrality and…
We investigate the effects of heterogeneous delays in the coupling of two excitable neural systems. Depending upon the coupling strengths and the time delays in the mutual and self-coupling, the compound system exhibits different types of…
We study explosive synchronization, a phenomenon characterized by first-order phase transitions between incoherent and synchronized states in networks of coupled oscillators. While explosive synchronization has been the subject of many…
Transients are fundamental to ecological systems with significant implications to management, conservation, and biological control. We uncover a type of transient synchronization behavior in spatial ecological networks whose local dynamics…
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…
Synchronization is one of the paradigmatic phenomena in the study of complex systems. It has been explored theoretically and experimentally mostly to understand natural phenomena, but also in view of technological applications. Although…
We study some mechanisms responsible for synchronous oscillations and loss of synchrony at physiologically relevant frequencies (10-200 Hz) in a network of heterogeneous inhibitory neurons. We focus on the factors that determine the level…
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…
