Limits on Anti-Phase Synchronization in Oscillator Networks

Abstract Anti-phase synchronization is the spontaneous formation of 2 clusters of oscillators synchronized between themselves within a cluster but opposite in phase with the other cluster. Neuronal networks in human and animal brains, ecological networks, climactic networks, and lasers are all syste...

description Abstract Anti-phase synchronization is the spontaneous formation of 2 clusters of oscillators synchronized between themselves within a cluster but opposite in phase with the other cluster. Neuronal networks in human and animal brains, ecological networks, climactic networks, and lasers are all systems that exhibit anti-phase synchronization although the phenomenon is encountered less frequently than the celebrated in-phase synchronization. We show that this disparity in occurrence is due to fundamental limits on the size of networks that can sustain anti-phase synchronization. We study the influence of network structure and coupling conditions on anti-phase synchronization in networks composed of coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators. The dependence of probability of anti-phase synchronization on connectivity of the network, strength of interaction over distance, and symmetry of the network is illustrated. Regardless of favourable network conditions, we show that anti-phase synchronization is limited to small networks, typically smaller than 20 nodes.
