Synchronization in an array of linearly coupled dynamical systems

Chai Wah Wu, Chua, L.O.·1995·IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I: Fundamental Theory and Applications

Abstract

This paper gives sufficient conditions for an array of linearly coupled systems to synchronize. A typical result states that the array will synchronize if the nonzero eigenvalues of the coupling matrix have real parts that are negative enough. In particular, we show that the intuitive idea that strong enough mutual diffusive coupling will synchronize an array of identical cells is true in general. Sufficient conditions for synchronization for several coupling configurations will be considered. For coupling that leaves the array decoupled at the synchronized state, the cells each follow their natural uncoupled dynamics at the synchronized state. We illustrate this with an array of chaotic oscillators. Extensions of these results to general coupling are discussed.>

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
