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.

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.

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.
