It is shown that arbitrarily weak (frozen) heterogeneity can induce global synchronized oscillations in excitable media close to threshold. The work is carried out on networks of coupled van der Pol-FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators. The result…

We investigate the role of the degree of symmetry of the diversity distribution in shaping the collective dynamics of networks of coupled excitable units modeled by FitzHugh-Nagumo equations. While previous studies have focused primarily on…

We investigate heterogeneous coupling delays in complex networks of excitable elements described by the FitzHugh-Nagumo model. The effects of discrete as well as of uni- and bimodal continuous distributions are studied with a focus on…

We study patterns of partial synchronization in a network of FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators with empirical structural connectivity measured in human subjects. We report the spontaneous occurrence of synchronization phenomena that closely…

We study synchronization and rhythmic patterns generated in the heterogeneous cluster of FitzHugh$-$Nagumo oscillators with transition between self-oscillating and excitable elements. Such cluster models the sinoatrial node of the heart,…

In a large variety of systems (biological, physical, social etc.), synchronization occurs when different oscillating objects tune their rhythm when they interact with each other. The different underlying network defining the connectivity…

We systematically investigate the phenomena of coherence resonance in time-delay coupled networks of FitzHugh-Nagumo elements in the excitable regime. Using numerical simulations, we examine the interplay of noise, time-delayed coupling and…

We study numerically the dynamics of a network of all-to-all-coupled, identical sub-networks consisting of diffusively coupled, non-identical FitzHugh--Nagumo oscillators. For a large range of within- and between-network couplings, the…

Relay synchronization in complex networks is characterized by the synchronization of remote parts of the network due to their interaction via a relay. In multilayer networks, distant layers that are not connected directly can synchronize…

We study the interplay between diversity and noise in a 3D network of FitzHugh-Nagumo elements, with topology and dimensions chosen to model a pancreatic beta-cell cluster, as an example of an excitable cell network. Our results show that…

We review our recent work on the synchronization of a network of delay-coupled maps, focusing on the interplay of the network topology and the delay times that take into account the finite velocity of propagation of interactions. We assume…

The framework of mutually coupled oscillators on a network has served as a convenient tool for investigating the impact of various parameters on the dynamics of real-world systems. Compared to large networks of oscillators, minimal networks…

We study numerically the effects of time delay in networks of delay-coupled excitable FitzHugh Nagumo systems with dissipation. The generation of periodic self-sustained oscillations and its threshold are analyzed depending on the…

Using the FitzHugh-Nagumo equations to represent the oscillatory electrical behavior of beta-cells, we develop a coupled oscillator network model with cubic lattice topology, showing that the emergence of pacemakers or hubs in the system…

We consider networks of coupled stochastic oscillators. When coupled we find strong collective oscillations, while each unit remains stochastic. In the limit (N\to \infty) we derive a system of integro-delay equations and show analytically…

Replacing conventional power sources by renewable sources in current power grids drastically alters their structure and functionality. The resulting grid will be far more decentralized with an distinctly different topology. Here we analyze…

We examine traveling-wave solutions on a regular ring network with one additional long-range link that spans a distance d. The nodes obey the FitzHugh-Nagumo kinetics in the excitable regime. The additional shortcut induces a plethora of…

We investigate in depth the synchronization of coupled oscillators on top of complex networks with different degrees of heterogeneity within the context of the Kuramoto model. In a previous paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 034101 (2007)], we…

We study synchronization dynamics of a population of pulse-coupled oscillators. In particular, we focus our attention in the interplay between networks topological disorder and its synchronization features. Firstly, we analyze…

We study the evolution of heterogeneous networks of oscillators subject to a state-dependent interconnection rule. We find that heterogeneity in the node dynamics is key in organizing the architecture of the functional emerging networks. We…
