Collective Phase Reorganization and Cluster Synchronization in Networks of Coupled Gumowski--Mira Maps

Abstract

We investigate the collective dynamics of networks composed of diffusively coupled Gumowski-Mira maps and analyze how modifications in the intrinsic dynamics of the local oscillator reorganize the emergent phase structure of the network. The coupling strength and the local control parameter are treated as bifurcation parameters, and the resulting collective states are quantified using the largest Lyapunov exponent, a synchronization error measure, cluster-count statistics, and collective phase-classification diagrams. Two representative regimes of the local dynamics are examined. In the first regime, the network exhibits a smooth and highly organized collective parameter space, featuring a synchronization wedge embedded within an extended region of periodic cluster states. In the second regime, the same coupling architecture yields a fragmented phase organization, comprising disconnected synchronization islands, incoherent domains, and enhanced chaotic-cluster states. These results indicate that variations in the intrinsic dynamics of the individual Gumowski-Mira oscillator do not simply shift synchronization thresholds but can fundamentally restructure the topology of the collective phase space. Our findings thus establish a direct relationship between local nonlinear dynamics and the emergent organization of collective phases in coupled discrete-time networks.

Admissible Fourier Lengths, KAM Reducibility, and Spectral Applications

We develop a perturbative KAM reducibility theory for one-frequency $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ cocycles based on an admissible Fourier length $\ell$. The regularity relevant to the iteration is measured by positive adapted Fourier width rather than ordinary smoothness in the Euclidean length $|n|$. The same length governs Fourier decay, truncation and resonance scales, and the arithmetic condition controlling the small divisors. This framework contains the classical analytic and Gevrey settings, while non-monotone choices of $\ell$ allow classical nowhere differentiable Weierstrass-type perturbations and continuous perturbations outside every positive H\"older class. As spectral applications, we obtain purely absolutely continuous spectrum for every phase and $1/2$-H\"older continuity of the integrated density of states for the associated quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger operators. The Aubry dual has pure point spectrum for Lebesgue almost every dual phase, with eigenfunctions exponentially localized in the metric induced by $\ell$. We also construct nowhere differentiable quasiperiodic potentials with purely absolutely continuous Cantor spectrum.

Dynamics inside the attracting basins of some skew products

Polynomial skew products in $\mathbb{C}^2$ are maps of the form $F(z,w)=(P(z),Q(z,w))$, where $P$ and $Q$ are polynomials. Their local dynamics have been widely investigated. In this paper, we study the global dynamics inside Fatou components of some skew products. We consider all the inverse images in a Fatou component of a given point and use the Kobayashi metric to measure the distance between points. In the cases we consider, there are always arbitrarily large Kobayashi balls in the complement of these inverse sets.

Ergodicity of dynamical systems without uniqueness of orbits

Recently, there has been considerable interest in the study of non-deterministic dynamical systems. To analyze the chaotic behavior of such systems from a measure-theoretic viewpoint, it is desirable to consider ergodicity. However, the classical definition of ergodicity involves invariant sets, whose definition is not unique for non-deterministic dynamical systems. Thus, we are led to the question of which invariance yields an interesting definition of ergodicity. Here, we propose a definition based on the strong backward invariance and show that analogs of classical results hold. We also consider implications of the Birkhoff ergodic theorem for systems without uniqueness of orbits.
