“…Their use in the optimization and control of dynamical behaviors have therefore attracted much attention recently. The multiplexing of networks has been shown to control many dynamical behaviors in neural networks, including synchronization (Gambuzza et al, 2015 ; Singh et al, 2015 ; Andrzejak et al, 2017 ; Leyva et al, 2017 ; Zhang et al, 2017 ), pattern formation (Kouvaris et al, 2015 ; Ghosh and Jalan, 2016 ; Ghosh et al, 2016 , 2018 ; Maksimenko et al, 2016 ; Bera et al, 2017 ; Bukh et al, 2017 ), solitary waves (Mikhaylenko et al, 2019 ), and chimera states (Panaggio and Abrams, 2015 ; Schöll, 2016 ; Ghosh et al, 2018 , 2019 ; Omelchenko et al, 2018 ; Sawicki et al, 2019 ). Chimera states are synchronization patterns occurring in symmetric networks (on average), characterized by the coexistence of varying synchronization levels side-by-side.…”
