Abstract

We present a relatively detailed analysis of the persistence probability distributions in financial dynamics. Compared with the auto-correlation function, the persistence probability distributions describe dynamic correlations non-local in time. Universal and non-universal behaviors of the German DAX and Shanghai Index are analyzed, and numerical simulations of some microscopic models are also performed. Around the fixed point $z_0=0$, the interacting herding model produces the scaling behavior of the real markets.

Steering the dynamics by controlling the temporal interaction network

Many real-world coupled dynamical systems have their interaction structure and strength that evolve or adapt over time. Here, we investigate how one can control the state of a system by tuning its temporal interaction network. We present a framework based on nonlinear optimal control, where one has control over the time-dependent coupling matrix of a dynamical system. We show how to obtain the gradient of the Lagrangian functional of a generic optimal control problem using the adjoint method, where the control variables are multiplicative inputs. We illustrate the theory with the precision cost that aims at steering the nodal states to prescribed target trajectories. We first focus on a linear time-variant system for which further expressions of the gradient can be obtained. Second, we uncover the temporal interaction that pushes a nonlinear neural units model towards target trajectories. For both systems, we numerically solve the optimal control problem, imposing various constraint on the structure of the controlled edges. The workflow presented here can be leveraged to steer the dynamics of systems with artificial or engineered interaction that is tunable.

Paths to synchronization in the Kuramoto model with inertia

Synchronization is ubiquitous across natural and synthetic systems, yet most prior studies focus on the inertia-free Kuramoto model and do so at the macroscopic level. In this study, we instead investigate the inertial Kuramoto model and analyze the kinetics of individual synchronized clusters that emerge in the underdamped dynamics, driven by the interactions among multiple synchronized clusters with different frequencies. Specifically, we explore two forms of intrinsic frequency distribution -- unimodal Gaussian and multimodal uniform -- and show that they give rise to qualitatively different synchronized clusters: a hierarchical organization for the Gaussian distribution and a homogeneous organization for the uniform distribution. This contrast leads to qualitatively different behaviors of the order parameter: for the Gaussian distribution, it increases smoothly with increasing coupling strength, while for the uniform distribution, it grows through a series of discrete jumps that trace out the size of the Devil's staircase (DS). By resolving the kinetics at the cluster level, we further find that the route to synchronization also depends on the distribution type: with a Gaussian distribution, a single dominant cluster forms and gradually entrains the remaining oscillators, whereas with a uniform distribution, synchronization proceeds via successive cluster mergers initiated from peripheral seeds associated with the high-frequency periphery. Taken together, these findings provide a new perspective on collective synchronization dynamics in inertial complex systems.

Explosive Synchronization in Inertial Kuramoto Models: Determining Resilience in Power Grids

Maintaining power-grid stability is essential for a sustainable energy supply. Using empirical power-grid data, we show that the inertial Kuramoto model with correlated powers and coupling strengths provides a relevant framework for analyzing explosive synchronization and grid stability. We identify two distinct synchronization pathways, initiated by population-driven or coupling-driven seed rotors, that yield different order-parameter behaviors. Inertia, in turn, determines whether the resulting seed clusters retain distinct angular velocities. Similar mechanisms govern recovery from external disturbances, linking power-grid resilience to these two nucleation pathways. Our findings provide a microscopic framework for understanding synchronization and recovery, with implications for stable power-grid operation.
