چکیده

Improving the frequency precision by synchronizing a lattice of N oscillators with disparate frequencies is studied in the phase reduction limit. In the general case where the coupling is not purely dissipative the synchronized state consists of targetlike waves radiating from a local source, which is a region of higher-frequency oscillators. In this state the improvement of the frequency precision is shown to be independent of N for large N, but instead depends on the disorder and reflects the dependence of the frequency of the synchronized state on just those oscillators in the source region of the waves. These results are obtained by a mapping of the nonlinear phase dynamics onto the linear Anderson problem of the quantum mechanics of electrons on a random lattice in the tight-binding approximation.

Building better oscillators using nonlinear dynamics and pattern formation

Frequency and time references play an essential role in modern technology and in living systems. The precision of self-sustained oscillations is limited by the effects of noise, which becomes evermore important as the sizes of the devices become smaller. In this paper, we review our recent theoretical results on using nonlinear dynamics and pattern formation to reduce the effects of noise and i...

Synchronization of two non-scalar-coupled limit-cycle oscillators

Being one of the fundamental phenomena in nonlinear science, synchronization of oscillations has permanently remained an object of intensive research. Development of many asymptotic methods and numerical simulations has allowed an understanding and explanation of various phenomena of self-synchronization. But even in the classical case of coupled van der Pol oscillators a full description of al...

Rich-club network topology to minimize synchronization cost due to phase difference among frequency-synchronized oscillators

Abstract Functions of some networks, such as power grids and large-scale brain networks, rely on not only frequency synchronization, but also phase synchronization. Nevertheless, even after the oscillators reach to frequency-synchronized status, phase difference among oscillators often shows non-zero constant values. Such phase difference potentially results in inefficient transfer of power or ...
