We show in this paper a sufficient condition for the existence of solution, the synchronized and the periodic locked state in abstract mean field models.
We consider the ordinary differential equations defined by a trigonometric polynomial field, we prove that any solution $x$ admits a "rotation vector" $\rho\in \mathbb{R}^n$. More precisely, the function $t\mapsto x(t)-\rho t$ is bounded on time and it is a "weak almost periodic" function of "slope" $\rho$.
In this article we prove the stability of mean field systems as the Winfree model in the synchronized state. The model is governed by the coupling strength parameter $\kappa$ and the natural frequency of each oscillator. The stability is proved independently of the number of os-cillators and the distribution of the natural frequencies. In order to prove the main result, we introduce the positive invariant cone and we start by studying the linearized system. The method can be applied to others mean field models as the Kuramoto model.
We consider $N$ oscillators coupled by a mean field as in the Winfree model. The model is governed by two parameters: the coupling strength $\kappa$ and the spectrum width $\gamma$ of the frequencies of each oscillator. In the uncoupled regime, $\kappa=0$, each oscillator possesses its own natural frequency, and the difference between the phases of any two oscillators grows linearly in time. We say that $N$ oscillators are synchronized if the difference between any two phases is uniformly bounded in time. We identify a new hypothesis for the existence of synchronization. The domain in $(\gamma,\kappa)$ of synchronization contains coupling values that are both weak and strong. Moreover the domain is independent of the number of oscillators and the distribution of the frequencies. We give a numerical counter-example which shows that this hypothesis is necessary for the existence of synchronization.
