The propensity for synchronization is studied in a complex network of asymmetrically coupled units, where the asymmetry in a given link is determined by the relative age of the involved nodes. In growing scale-free networks synchronization…
This paper gives a fresh look at network synchronization. Here we no longer analyze it from the view of mathematics, such as graph theory, while we probe into one from control theory. First, we analyze the synchronization region using the…
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…
Heterogeneity in the degree distribution is known to suppress global synchronization in complex networks of symmetrically coupled oscillators. Scale-free networks display a great deal of heterogeneity, containing a few nodes, termed hubs,…
In this paper, we investigate the factors that affect the synchronization of coupled oscillators on networks. By using the edge-intercrossing method, we keep the degree distribution unchanged to see other statistical properties' effects on…
We study fully synchronized states in scale-free networks of chaotic logistic maps as a function of both dynamical and topological parameters. Three different network topologies are considered: (i) random scale-free topology, (ii)…
In this Letter we identify the general rules that determine the synchronization properties of interconnected networks. We study analytically, numerically and experimentally how the degree of the nodes through which two networks are…
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…
As a model of evolving networks, we study coupled logistic maps on scale free networks. For small coupling strengths nodes show turbulent behavior but form phase synchronized clusters as coupling increases. We identify two different ways of…
By a model of coupled phase oscillators, we show analytically how synchronization in {\em non-identical} complex networks can be enhanced by introducing a proper gradient into the couplings. It is found that, by pointing the gradient from…
We investigate the optimization of synchronizability in multiplex networks and demonstrate that the interlayer coupling strength is the deciding factor for the efficiency of optimization. The optimized networks have homogeneity in the…
In this letter, we consider the effect of clustering coefficient on the synchronizability of coupled oscillators located on scale-free networks. The analytic result for the value of clustering coefficient aiming at a highly clustered…
This work introduces a methodology for studying synchronization in adaptive networks with heterogeneous plasticity (adaptation) rules. As a paradigmatic model, we consider a network of adaptively coupled phase oscillators with…
Coupling frequently enhances noise-induced coherence and synchronization in interacting nonlinear systems, but it does so separately. In principle collective stochastic coherence and synchronizability are incompatible phenomena, since…
Recent studies have shown that synchronizability of complex networks can be significantly improved by asymmetric couplings, and increase of coupling gradient is always in favor of network synchronization. Here we argue and demonstrate that,…
Complex networks are a successful framework to describe collective behaviour in many applications, but a notable gap remains in the current literature, that of proving asymptotic convergence in networks of piecewise-smooth systems. Indeed,…
Although the set of permutation symmetries of a complex network can be very large, few of the symmetries give rise to stable synchronous patterns. Here we present a new framework and develop techniques for controlling synchronization…
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…
Symmetries are ubiquitous in network systems and have profound impacts on the observable dynamics. At the most fundamental level, many synchronization patterns are induced by underlying network symmetry, and a high degree of symmetry is…
In this paper, new schemes to synchronize linearly or nonlinearly coupled chaotic systems with an adaptive coupling strength are proposed. Unlike other adaptive schemes, which synchronize coupled chaotic systems to a special trajectory (or…
