Chimera states: coexistence of coherence and incoherence in networks of coupled oscillators

MJ Panaggio, DM Abrams - Nonlinearity, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
A chimera state is a spatio-temporal pattern in a network of identical coupled oscillators in
which synchronous and asynchronous oscillation coexist. This state of broken symmetry …

Explosive transitions in complex networks' structure and dynamics: Percolation and synchronization

S Boccaletti, JA Almendral, S Guan, I Leyva, Z Liu… - Physics Reports, 2016 - Elsevier
Percolation and synchronization are two phase transitions that have been extensively
studied since already long ago. A classic result is that, in the vast majority of cases, these …
