Traveling chimera patterns in two-dimensional neuronal network

We study the emergence of the traveling chimera state in a two-dimensional network of Hindmarsh-Rose burst neurons with the mutual presence of local and non-local couplings. We show that in the unique presence of the non-local chemical coupling modeled by a nonlinear function, the traveling chimera phenomenon occurs with a displacement in both directions of the plane of the grid. The introduction of local electrical coupling shows that the mutual influence of the two types of coupling can, for certain values, generate traveling chimera, imperfect-traveling, traveling multi-clusters, and alternating traveling chimera, ie the presence in the network under study, of patterns of coherent elements interspersed by other incoherent elements in movement and alternately changing their position over time. The confirmation of the states of coherence is done by introducing the parameter of instantaneous local order parameter in two dimensions. We extend our analysis through mathematical tools such as the Hamilton energy function to determine the direction of propagation of patterns in two dimensions.

Optimized ensemble deep learning framework for scalable forecasting of dynamics containing extreme events

The remarkable flexibility and adaptability of both deep learning models and ensemble methods have led to the proliferation for their application in understanding many physical phenomena. Traditionally, these two techniques have largely been treated as independent methodologies in practical applications. This study develops an optimized ensemble deep learning (OEDL) framework wherein these two machine learning techniques are jointly used to achieve synergistic improvements in model accuracy, stability, scalability, and reproducibility prompting a new wave of applications in the forecasting of dynamics. Unpredictability is considered as one of the key features of chaotic dynamics, so forecasting such dynamics of nonlinear systems is a relevant issue in the scientific community. It becomes more challenging when the prediction of extreme events is the focus issue for us. In this circumstance, the proposed OEDL model based on a best convex combination of feed-forward neural networks, reservoir computing, and long short-term memory can play a key role in advancing predictions of dynamics consisting of extreme events. The combined framework can generate the best out-of-sample performance than the individual deep learners and standard ensemble framework for both numerically simulated and real world data sets. We exhibit the outstanding performance of the OEDL framework for forecasting extreme events generated from Lienard-type system, prediction of COVID-19 cases in Brazil, dengue cases in San Juan, and sea surface temperature in Nino 3.4 region.

Amplitude mediated spiral chimera pattern in a nonlinear reaction-diffusion system

Formation of diverse patterns in spatially extended reaction-diffusion systems is an important aspect of study which is pertinent to many chemical and biological processes. Of special interest is the peculiar phenomenon of chimera state having spatial coexistence of coherent and incoherent dynamics in a system of identically interacting individuals. In the present article, we report the emergence of various collective dynamical patterns while considering a system of prey-predator dynamics in presence of a two-dimensional diffusive environment. Particularly, we explore the observance of four distinct categories of spatial arrangements among the species, namely spiral wave, spiral chimera, completely synchronized oscillations, and oscillation death states in a broad region of the diffusion-driven parameter space. Emergence of amplitude mediated spiral chimera states displaying drifted amplitudes and phases in the incoherent subpopulation is detected for parameter values beyond both Turing and Hopf bifurcations. Transition scenarios among all these distinguishable patterns are numerically demonstrated for a wide range of the diffusion coefficients which reveal that the chimera states arise during the transition from oscillatory to steady state dynamics. Furthermore, we characterize the occurrence of each of the recognizable patterns by estimating the strength of incoherent subpopulations in the two-dimensional space.

Dynamic interaction induced explosive death

Most previous studies on coupled dynamical systems assume that all interactions between oscillators take place uniformly in time, but in reality, this does not necessarily reflect the usual scenario. The heterogeneity in the timings of such interactions strongly influences the dynamical processes. Here, we introduce a time-evolving state-space dependent coupling among an ensemble of identical coupled oscillators, where individual units are interacting only when the mean state of the system lies within a certain proximity of the phase space. They interact globally with mean-field diffusive coupling in a certain vicinity and behave like uncoupled oscillators with self-feedback in the remaining complementary subspace. Interestingly due to this occasional interaction, we find that the system shows an abrupt explosive transition from oscillatory to death state. Further, in the explosive death transitions, the oscillatory state and the death state coexist over a range of coupling strengths near the transition point. We explore our claim using Van der pol, FitzHughNagumo and Lorenz oscillators with dynamic mean field interaction. The dynamic interaction mechanism can explain sudden suppression of oscillations and concurrence of oscillatory and steady state in biological as well as technical systems.

Emergent rhythms in coupled nonlinear oscillators due to dynamic interactions

The role of a new form of dynamic interaction is explored in a network of generic identical oscillators. The proposed design of dynamic coupling facilitates the onset of a plethora of asymptotic states including synchronous states, amplitude death states, oscillation death states, a mixed state (complete synchronized cluster and small amplitude unsynchronized domain), and bistable states (coexistence of two attractors). The dynamical transitions from the oscillatory to death state are characterized using an average temporal interaction approximation, which agrees with the numerical results in temporal interaction. A first-order phase transition behavior may change into a second-order transition in spatial dynamic interaction solely depending on the choice of initial conditions in the bistable regime. However, this possible abrupt first-order like transition is completely non-existent in the case of temporal dynamic interaction. Besides the study on periodic Stuart-Landau systems, we present results for paradigmatic chaotic model of Rössler oscillators and Mac-arthur ecological model.

Optimal test-kit based intervention strategy of epidemic spreading in heterogeneous complex networks

We propose a deterministic compartmental model of infectious disease which considers the test-kits as an important ingredient for the suppression and mitigation of epidemics. A rigorous simulation (with analytical argument) is provided to reveal the effective reduction of final outbreak size and peak of infection as a function of basic reproduction number in a single patch. Further, to study the impact of long and short-distance human migration among the patches, we have considered heterogeneous networks where the linear diffusive connectivity is determined by the network link structure. We numerically confirm that implementation of test-kits in the fraction of nodes (patches) having larger degrees or betweenness centralities can reduce the peak of infection (as well as final outbreak size) significantly. A next-generation matrix based analytical treatment is provided to find out the critical transmission probability in the entire network for the onset of epidemics. Finally, the optimal intervention strategy is validated in two real networks: global airport networks and transportation networks of Kolkata, India.

Chimera-like behavior in a heterogeneous Kuramoto model: the interplay between the attractive and repulsive coupling

Interaction within an ensemble of coupled nonlinear oscillators induces a variety of collective behaviors. One of the most fascinating is a chimera state which manifests the coexistence of spatially distinct populations of coherent and incoherent elements. Understanding of the emergent chimera behavior in controlled experiments or real systems requires a focus on the consideration of heterogeneous network models. In this study, we explore the transitions in a heterogeneous Kuramoto model under the monotonical increase of the coupling strength and specifically find that this system exhibits a frequency-modulated chimera-like pattern during the explosive transition to synchronization. We demonstrate that this specific dynamical regime originates from the interplay between (the evolved) attractively and repulsively coupled subpopulations. We also show that the above mentioned chimera-like state is induced under weakly non-local, small-world and sparse scale-free coupling and suppressed in globally coupled, strongly rewired and dense scale-free networks due to the emergence of the large-scale connections.

Distance dependent competitive interactions in a frustrated network of mobile agents

Diverse collective dynamics emerge in dynamical systems interacting on top of complex network architectures. Along this line of research, temporal network has come out to be one of the most promising network platforms to investigate. Especially, such network with spatially moving agents has been established to be capable of modelling a number of practical instances. In this paper, we examine the dynamical outcomes of moving agents interacting based upon their physical proximity. For this, we particularly emphasize on the impact of competing interactions among the agents depending on their physical distance. We specifically assume attractive coupling between agents which are staying apart from each other, whereas we adopt repulsive interaction for agents that are sufficiently close in space. With this set-up, we consider two types of coupling configurations, symmetry-breaking and symmetry-preserving couplings. We encounter variants of collective dynamics ranging from synchronization, inhomogeneous small oscillation to cluster state and extreme events while changing the attractive and repulsive coupling strengths. We have been able to map all these dynamical behaviors in the coupling parameter space. Complete synchronization being the most desired state in absence of repulsive coupling, we present an analytical study for this scenario that agrees well with the numerical results.

Mitigating long transient time in deterministic systems by resetting

How long does a trajectory take to reach a stable equilibrium point in the basin of attraction of a dynamical system? This is a question of quite general interest, and has stimulated a lot of activities in dynamical and stochastic systems where the metric of this estimation is often known as the transient or first passage time. In nonlinear systems, one often experiences long transients due to their underlying dynamics. We apply resetting or restart, an emerging concept in statistical physics and stochastic process, to mitigate the detrimental effects of prolonged transients in deterministic dynamical systems. We show that stopping an ongoing process at intermittent time only to restart all over from a spatial control line, can dramatically expedite its completion, resulting in a huge decrease in mean transient time. Moreover, our study unfolds a net reduction in fluctuations around the mean. Our claim is established with detailed numerical studies on the Stuart-Landau limit cycle oscillator and chaotic Lorenz system under different resetting strategies. Our analysis opens up a door to control the mean and fluctuations in transient time by unifying the original dynamics with an external stochastic or periodic timer, and poses open questions on the optimal way to harness transients in dynamical systems.

Understanding the origin of extreme events in El Niño-Southern Oscillation

We investigate a low-dimensional slow-fast model to understand the dynamical origin of El Niño-Southern Oscillation. A close inspection of the system dynamics using several bifurcation plots reveals that a sudden large expansion of the attractor occurs at a critical system parameter via a type of interior crisis. This interior crisis evolves through merging of a cascade of period-doubling and period-adding bifurcations that leads to the origin of occasional amplitude-modulated extremely large events. More categorically, a situation similar to homoclinic chaos arises near the critical point, however, atypical global instability evolves as a channel-like structure in phase space of the system that modulates variability of amplitude and return time of the occasional large events and makes a difference from the homoclinic chaos. The slow-fast timescale of the low-dimensional model plays an important role on the onset of occasional extremely large events. Such extreme events are characterized by their heights when they exceed a threshold level measured by a mean-excess function. The probability density of events' height displays multimodal distribution with an upper-bounded tail. We identify the dependence structure of interevent intervals to understand the predictability of return time of such extreme events using autoregressive integrated moving average model and box plot analysis.

Effect of repulsive links on frustration in attractively coupled networks

We investigate the impact of attractive-repulsive interaction in networks of limit-cycle oscillators. Mainly we focus on the design principle for generating an anti-phase state between adjacent nodes in a complex network. We establish that a partial negative control throughout the branches of a spanning tree inside the positively coupled limit-cycle oscillators works efficiently well in comparison with randomly chosen negative links to establish zero frustration (anti-phase synchronization) in bipartite graphs. Based on the emergence of zero frustration, we develop a universal 0-$π$ rule to understand the anti-phase synchronization in a bipartite graph. Further, this rule is used to construct a non-bipartite graph for a given non-zero frustrated value. We finally show the generality of 0-$π$ rule by implementing it in arbitrary undirected non-bipartite graphs of attractive-repulsively coupled limit-cycle oscillators and successfully calculate the non-zero frustration value which matches with numerical data. The validation of the rule is checked through the bifurcation analysis of small networks. Our work may unveil the underlying mechanism of several synchronization phenomena that exist in a network of oscillators having a mixed type of coupling.

Another new chaotic system: bifurcation and chaos control

We propose a new simple three-dimensional continuous autonomous model with two nonlinear terms and observe the dynamical behavior with respect to system parameters. This system changes the stability of fixed point via Hopf bifurcation and then undergoes a cascade of a period-doubling route to chaos. We analytically derive the first Lyapunov coefficient to investigate the nature of Hopf bifurcation and also investigate well-separated regions for different kinds of attractors in two-dimensional parameter space. Next, we introduce a time-scale ratio parameter and calculate the slow manifold using geometric singular perturbation theory. Finally, the chaotic state is annihilated by decreasing the value of the time-scale ratio parameter.

Extreme events in a network of heterogeneous Josephson junctions

We report rare and recurrent large spiking events in a heterogeneous network of superconducting Josephson junctions (JJ) connected through a resistive load and driven by a radio-frequency (rf) current in addition to a constant bias. The intermittent large spiking events show characteristic features of extreme events (EE) since they are larger than a statistically defined significant height. Under the influence of repulsive interactions and an impact of heterogeneity of damping parameters, the network splits into three sub-groups of junctions, one in incoherent rotational, another in coherent librational motion and a third sub-group originating EE. We are able to scan the whole population of junctions with their distinctive individual dynamical features either in EE mode or non-EE mode in parameter space. EE migrates spatially from one to another sub-group of junctions depending upon the repulsive strength and the damping parameter. For a weak repulsive coupling, all the junctions originate frequent large spiking events, in rotational motion when the average inter-spike-interval (ISI) is small, but it increases exponentially with repulsive interaction; it largely deviates from its exponential growth at a break point where EE triggers in a sub-group of junctions. The probability density of inter-event-intervals (IEI) in the subgroup exhibits a Poisson distribution. EE originates via bubbling instability of in-phase synchronization.

Transitions from chimeras to coherence: An analytical approach by means of the coherent stability function

Chimera states have been a vibrant subject of research in the recent past, but the analytical treatment of transitions from chimeras to coherent states remains a challenge. Here we analytically derive the necessary conditions for this transition by means of the coherent stability function approach, which is akin to the master stability function approach that is traditionally used to study the stability of synchronization in coupled oscillators. In chimera states, there is typically at least one group of oscillators that evolves in a drifting, random manner, while other groups of oscillators follow a smoother, more coherent profile. In the coherent state, there thus exists a smooth functional relationship between the oscillators. This lays the foundation for the coherent stability function approach, where we determine the stability of the coherent state. We subsequently test the analytical prediction numerically by calculating the strength of incoherence during the transition point. We use leech neurons, which exhibit a coexistence of chaotic and periodic tonic spiking depending on initial conditions, coupled via non-local electrical synapses, to demonstrate our approach. We systematically explore various dynamical states with the focus on the transitions between chimeras and coherence, fully confirming the validity of the coherent stability function. We also observe complete synchronization for higher values of the coupling strength, which we verify by the master stability function approach.

Intermittent large deviation of chaotic trajectory in Ikeda map: Signature of extreme events

We notice signatures of extreme events-like behavior in a laser based Ikeda map. The trajectory of the system occasionally travels a large distance away from the bounded chaotic region, which appears as intermittent spiking events in the temporal dynamics. The large spiking events satisfy the conditions of extreme events as usually observed in dynamical systems. The probability density function of the large spiking events shows a long-tail distribution consistent with the characteristics of rare events. The inter-event intervals obey a Poisson-like distribution. We locate the parameter regions of extreme events in phase diagrams. Furthermore, we study two Ikeda maps to explore how and when extreme events terminates via mutual interaction. A pure diffusion of information exchange is unable to terminate extreme events where synchronous occurrence of extreme events is only possible even for large interaction. On the other hand, a threshold-activated coupling can terminate extreme events above a critical value of mutual interaction.

Chimera patterns in three-dimensional locally coupled systems

The coexistence of coherent and incoherent domains, namely the appearance of chimera states, is being studied extensively in many contexts of science and technology since the past decade, though the previous studies are mostly built on the framework of one-dimensional and two-dimensional interaction topologies. Recently, the emergence of such fascinating phenomena has been studied in three-dimensional (3D) grid formation while considering only the nonlocal interaction. Here we study the emergence and existence of chimera patterns in a three dimensional network of coupled Stuart-Landau limit cycle oscillators and Hindmarsh-Rose neuronal oscillators with local (nearest neighbour) interaction topology. The emergence of different types of spatiotemporal chimera patterns is investigated by taking two distinct nonlinear interaction functions. We provide appropriate analytical explanations in the 3D grid of network formation and the corresponding numerical justifications are given. We extend our analysis on the basis of Ott-Antonsen reduction approach in the case of Stuart-Landau oscillators containing infinite number of oscillators. Particularly, in Hindmarsh-Rose neuronal network the existence of non-stationary chimera states are characterized by instantaneous strength of incoherence and instantaneous local order parameter. Besides, the condition for achieving exact neuronal synchrony is obtained analytically through a linear stability analysis. The different types of collective dynamics together with chimera states are mapped over a wide range of various parameter spaces.

Emergent dynamics in delayed attractive-repulsively coupled networks

We investigate different emergent dynamics namely oscillation quenching and revival of oscillation in a global network of identical oscillators coupled with diffusive (positive) delay coupling as it is perturbed by symmetry breaking localized repulsive delayed interaction. Starting from the oscillatory states (OS) we systematically identify three types of transition phenomena in the parameter space: (1) The system may reach inhomogeneous steady states (IHSS) from the homogeneous steady state (HSS) sometimes called as the transition from amplitude death (AD) to oscillation death (OD) state i.e. OS-AD-OD scenario, (2) Revival of oscillation (OS) from the AD state (OS-AD-OS) and (3) Emergence of OD state from oscillatory state (OS) without passing through AD i.e. OS-OD. The dynamics of each node in the network is assumed to be governed either by identical limit cycle Stuart-Landau system or by chaotic Rossler system. Based on clustering behavior observed in oscillatory network we derive a reduced low-dimensional model of the large network. Using the reduced model, we investigate the effect of time delay on these transitions and demarcate OS, AD and OD regimes in the parameter space. We also explore and characterize the bifurcation transitions present in both systems. The generic behavior of the low dimensional model and full network are found to match satisfactorily.

Resumption of dynamism in damaged networks of coupled oscillators

Deterioration in the dynamical activities may come up naturally or due to environmental influences in a massive portion of biological and physical systems. Such dynamical degradation may have outright effect on the substantive network performance. This enforces to provide some proper prescriptions to overcome undesired circumstances. Through this article, we present a scheme based on external feedback that can efficiently revive dynamism in damaged networks of active and inactive oscillators and thus enhance the network survivability. Both numerical and analytical investigations are performed in order to verify our claim. We also provide a comparative study on the effectiveness of this mechanism for feedbacks to the inactive group or to the active group only. Most importantly, resurrection of dynamical activity is realized even in time-delayed damaged networks, which are considered to be less persistent against deterioration in form of inactivity in the oscillators. Furthermore, prominence in our approach is substantiated by providing evidence of enhanced network persistence in complex network topologies taking small-world and scale-free architectures, which makes the proposed remedy quite general. Besides the study in network of Stuart-Landau oscillators, affirmative influence of external feedback has been justified in network of chaotic Rossler systems as well.
