Their deceptively simple form supports a very rich family of complex solitary patterns. Some of these patterns are also found in the quasi-continuum rendition, but the more intriguing ones, like interlaced pairs of solitary waves, or waves which may reverse their direction either spontaneously or due a collision, are an intrinsic feature of the discrete realm.

A1 - Pikovskij, Arkadij T1 - Two-Bunch Solutions for the Dynamics of Ott–Antonsen Phase Ensembles JF - Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics N2 - We have developed a method for deriving systems of closed equations for the dynamics of order parameters in the ensembles of phase oscillators. The Ott-Antonsen equation for the complex order parameter is a particular case of such equations. The simplest nontrivial extension of the Ott-Antonsen equation corresponds to two-bunch states of the ensemble. Based on the equations obtained, we study the dynamics of multi-bunch chimera states in coupled Kuramoto-Sakaguchi ensembles. We show an increase in the dimensionality of the system dynamics for two-bunch chimeras in the case of identical phase elements and a transition to one-bunch "Abrams chimeras" for imperfect identity (in the latter case, the one-bunch chimeras become attractive).

Using the Ott - Antonsen approach, the problem is formulated as a system of partial derivative equations for the local complex order parameter. In this framework, we investigate the existence and stability of twisted states. Both fully coherent and partially coherent stable twisted states were found (the latter ones for the first time for identical oscillators). We show that twisted states can be stable starting from a certain critical value of the medium length, or on a length segment. The analytical results are confirmed with direct numerical simulations in finite ensembles.

Complexity N2 - I study deterministic dynamics of chiral active particles in two dimensions. Particles are considered as discs interacting with elastic repulsive forces. An ensemble of particles, started from random initial conditions, demonstrates chaotic collisions resulting in their normal diffusion. This chaos is transient, as rather abruptly a synchronous collisionless state establishes. The life time of chaos grows exponentially with the number of particles. External forcing (periodic or chaotic) is shown to facilitate the synchronization transition.

Without noise this model was recently proposed as a generalization of the Kuramoto model and it was found that alignment of the velocities occurs discontinuously for arbitrarily small attractive coupling. Adding noise to the system resolves this singular limit and leads to a continuous transition, either to a directed collective motion or to center-of-mass rotations.

Our main focus lies on the conditions under which a collective oscillatory mode is well defined. For this purpose, the minimal value of the amplitude of the complex Kuramoto order parameter appears as a proper indicator. The dependence of this minimum on coupling strength varies due to sampling variations and correlates with the sample kurtosis of the natural frequency distribution. The skewness of the frequency sample determines the frequency of the resulting collective mode. The effects of kurtosis and skewness hold in the thermodynamic limit of infinite ensembles. We prove this by integrating a self-consistency equation for the complex Kuramoto order parameter for two families of distributions with controlled kurtosis and skewness, respectively.

A1 - Pikovskij, Arkadij T1 - Synchrony breakdown and noise-induced oscillation death in ensembles of serially connected spin-torque oscillators JF - The European physical journal : B, Condensed matter and complex systems N2 - We consider collective dynamics in the ensemble of serially connected spin-torque oscillators governed by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert-Slonczewski magnetization equation. Proximity to homoclinicity hampers synchronization of spin-torque oscillators: when the synchronous ensemble experiences the homoclinic bifurcation, the growth rate per oscillation of small deviations from the ensemble mean diverges. Depending on the configuration of the contour, sufficiently strong common noise, exemplified by stochastic oscillations of the current through the circuit, may suppress precession of the magnetic field for all oscillators. We derive the explicit expression for the threshold amplitude of noise, enabling this suppression.

Prikladnaja nelinejnaja dinamika = Applied nonlinear dynamics N2 - Topic and aim. Synchronization in populations of coupled oscillators can be characterized with order parameters that describe collective order in ensembles. A dependence of the order parameter on the coupling constants is well-known for coupled periodic oscillators. The goal of the study is to extend this analysis to ensembles of oscillators with chaotic phases, moreover with phases possessing hyperbolic chaos. Models and methods. Two models are studied in the paper. One is an abstract discrete-time map, composed with a hyperbolic Bernoulli transformation and with Kuramoto dynamics. Another model is a system of coupled continuous-time chaotic oscillators, where each individual oscillator has a hyperbolic attractor of Smale-Williams type. Results. The discrete-time model is studied with the Ott-Antonsen ansatz, which is shown to be invariant under the application of the Bernoulli map. The analysis of the resulting map for the order parameter shows, that the asynchronouis state is always stable, but the synchronous one becomes stable above a certain coupling strength. Numerical analysis of the continuous-time model reveals a complex sequence of transitions from an asynchronous state to a completely synchronous hyperbolic chaos, with intermediate stages that include regimes with periodic in time mean field, as well as with weakly and strongly irregular mean field variations. Discussion. Results demonstrate that synchronization of systems with hyperbolic chaos of phases is possible, although a rather strong coupling is required. The approach can be applied to other systems of interacting units with hyperbolic chaotic dynamics. N2 - Тема и цель. Синхронизация в популяциях связанных осцилляторов может быть охарактеризована параметрами порядка, описывающими коллективный порядок в ансамблях. Зависимость параметра порядка от коэффициентов связи хорошо известна для связанных периодических осцилляторов. Целью данного исследования является обобщение этого анализа на ансамбли осцилляторов с хаотическими фазами, а именно, с фазами, распределёнными на гиперболическом аттракторе. Модели и методы. В работе исследуются две модели. Первая – абстрактное отображение в дискретном времени, составленное из гиперболического преобразования Бернулли и динамики Курамото. Вторая – это система связанных хаотических осцилляторов в непрерывном времени, где каждый отдельный осциллятор имеет гиперболический аттрактор типа Смейла–Вильямса. Результаты. Модель в дискретном времени изучается с помощью подхода Отта–Антонсена, который, как показано, инвариантен при применении отображения Бернулли. Анализ полученного отображения по параметрам порядка показывает, что асинхронное состояние всегда устойчиво, а синхронное состояние становится устойчивым выше определенной силы связи. Численный анализ модели в непрерывном времени показывает сложную последовательность переходов из асинхронного состояния в полностью синхронный гиперболический хаос с промежуточными стадиями, которые включают режимы с периодическим во времени средним полем, а также со слабо и сильно нерегулярными вариациями среднего поля. Обсуждение. Результаты показывают, что синхронизация систем с гиперболическим фазовым хаосом возможна, хотя требуется довольно сильная связь. Данный подход может быть применен и к другим системам взаимодействующих звеньев с гиперболической хаотической динамикой.

Under the approximation of timescale separation, i.e., when the time delays in each connection are much larger than the characteristic duration of the spikes, the observed rather coherent spike pattern can be described by an idealized coupled point processwith a leader-follower relationship. We derive analytically the statistics of the spikes in each unit, the pairwise correlations between any two units, and the spectrum of the total output from the network. Theory is in good agreement with the simulations with a network of theta-neurons. Published under license by AIP Publishing.

We have obtained homogeneous, twisted, and nonhomogeneous stationary solutions to the Ott-Antonsen equations corresponding to key variants of the realized collective rotational motion of elements of the medium in question with nonzero mesoscopic characteristics determining the degree of coherence of the dynamics of neighboring particles. We have described the procedures of the search for the class of nonhomogeneous solutions as stationary points of the auxiliary point map and of determining the stability based on analysis of the eigenvalue spectrum of the composite operator. Static and breather cluster regimes have been demonstrated and described, as well as the regimes with an irregular behavior of averaged complex fields including, in particular, the local order parameter.
