In this work we study numerically a lattice composed of two parameter single quartic maps with local diffusive coupling. We find large regions over the parameter space where the single quartic map is periodic and the coupled system is not synchronized. We explore further one point on this region to show that it presents a real non-trivial collective behavior.
Collective oscillations of lattices of locally-coupled chaotic Roessler oscillators are studied with regard to the dynamical scaling of their phase interfaces. Using analogies with the complex Ginzburg-Landau and the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equations, we argue that phase coherence should be lost in the infinite-size limit. Our numerical results, however, indicate possible discrepancies with a Langevin-like description using an effective white-noise term.
