Chimeras are this year coming of age since they were first observed by Kuramoto and
Battogtokh in 2002 in a one-dimensional network of complex Ginzburg–Landau equations …

Neuronal networks, similar to many other complex systems, self-organize into fascinating
emergent states that are not only visually compelling, but also vital for the proper functioning …

A modern introduction to synchronization phenomena, this text presents recent discoveries
and the current state of research in the field, from low-dimensional systems to complex …

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 …

Nonlinear systems with two competing frequencies show locking or resonances. In lasers,
the two interacting frequencies can be the cavity repetition rate and a frequency externally …

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 …

An imperative condition for the functioning of a power-grid network is that its power
generators remain synchronized. Disturbances can prompt desynchronization, which is a …

Complex dynamical systems, ranging from the climate, ecosystems to financial markets and
engineering applications typically have many coexisting attractors. This property of the …

The synchronization of coupled oscillators is a fascinating manifestation of self-organization
that nature uses to orchestrate essential processes of life, such as the beating of the heart …

We study the emergence of chimera states in a multilayer neuronal network, where one
layer is composed of coupled and the other layer of uncoupled neurons. Through the …
