Abstract:We investigate the transition to synchronization in a two-layer network of oscillators with time-switching inter-layer links. We focus on the role of the number of inter-layer links and the timescale of topological changes. Initially, we observe a smooth transition to complete synchronization for the static inter-layer topology by increasing the number of inter-layer links. Next, for a dynamic topology with the existent inter-layer links randomly changing among identical oscillators in the layers, we observe a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
